I confess I had to make this card twice, because my first choice of ink colors didn't quite work with the blush blossom cardstock. Is your blush blossom ink more orange than blush? Well, mine is. So I tried again with the VersaColor cinnamon and old rose, and BINGO!
Design Discussion: These stamps are from Art Impressions. I picked them up years ago for 90% off at a scrapbook store going-out-of-business sale. I've tried to make things with them a few times, but nothing really worked like I wanted it to. This time, it came together so easily! One layer, visual triangle of snowflakes (which I had to use a positioner for because the flake is crooked on the wood block and it bothered me), monochromatic color scheme, bling: these all worked for me!
Note: This also works for the Hope You Can Cling To challenge at SCS. Many thanks to Lydia for telling me about it!
Lovely Susan........Very festive.
ReplyDeleteI like your choice of cardstock. I also like lavender and blue cardstock as a base for Christmas cards.

ReplyDeleteGreat card Susan...I love these stamps and have several but not this one....they are great for one layer stuff.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the work you've put in to OLW--I've been enjoying it immensely! It's the only challenge I've participated in, so I'm glad Jennifer is going to help keep it going.
