This card was inspired by a card that popped up on my facebook memories

from 2016 so I thought I would use it as my inspiration for my card this month!

Card below from 2016

This time I opted for a Basic White card layer, with

Merry Merlot, Evening Evergreen and Grey Granite.

To create this card I used the Snowflake Wishes Stamp set

with Grey Granite 2nd generation ink to keep the

Snowflakes soft and delicate!

Below: inside my card

I die cut the MERRY using the Playful Alphabet Die

with Merry Merlot and Evening Evergreen Cardstock,

The Christmas is die cut in Grey Granite cardstock with

the Word Wishes Dies

I added a few Basic Rhinestones to the centres of

my snowflakes and thats my card done!

Welcome to this months Stampin' for Christmas Blog Hop,

we are a group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators

from all over the world sharing Christmas

card making & Papercraft ideas with Stampin' Up! Products

Here is what I made for todays hop

using the Stampin' Up! Snowflake Wishes

Stamp set.

To create my card I cut a Thick Basic White card base

measuring 29.7cm x 10.5cm, scored in half at 14.8cm

I then cut a Smoky Slate layer slightly smaller

measuring 10cm x 14.4cm

I then stamped lots of the snowflakes

in varying sizes onto the Smoky Slate

layer in Versamark ink which I then heat set

with Silver Embossing powder.

While I was playing I couldnt

resist grabbing some ink Refills and a baby wipe

to create the card below, Known as either

the Baby Wipe Technique or Reinker Technique.

Its a fun technique and the colour combinations

are endless and the finish is beautiful!

Inks refills used

Highland Heather, Smoky Slate,

Seaside Spray, Coastal Cabana

and Gorgeous Grape

I flicked the background again with

Frost White Shimmer paint and also with my

Highland Heather Dark Stampin' Blend

I love the result of this just taking away that

stark plain backdground, the Frost White Shimmer

paint adds a lovely

subtle shimmer which is beautiful.

Heres a close up of the splattered / Flicked Background.

Finishing my Smoky Slate card...

Once I'd heat set the Snowflakes

I then used Smoky Slate ink pad and a blending brush

to darken the 4 edges of my embossed layer,

to finish my card I flicked the embossed layer

all over with Frost White shimmer paint and also with

my Smoky Slate Dark Stampin' Blend,

Both cards I've added Basic

Rhinestones to each of the centres

of the snowflakes. and a bow tied to

the Silver embossed Sentiment layer in

Whisper White Crinkled ribbon.

I hope my cards inspire you to

make a christmas card today, Its never to early

to start making your Christmas cards you know!!??
