Now that December & Christmas season is upon us, I’m in full Christmas card mode. And I couldn’t wait to try out this beautiful new Snowflake Wreath. It’s perfect for Christmas or even winter birthday cards, just change up the greeting. I stuck with a mostly white with just a touch of very pale aqua to give it a super frosty look. The snowflakes added on top were cut out of glitter paper to add some sparkle.
A big congrats to Diane, the newest Featured Stamper FS930! She has a lovely gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the wreath & snowflakes, but made a card instead of an ornament. I used a full snowflake wreath instead of just 3 on one side.
After I die cut the snowflake wreath, I attached it to a card board version for strength & stability. Then I die cut the white background w/ the missing wreath section, used a snowflake edger on the bottom, then attached it to a pale aqua background. The greeting was stamped onto the aqua & I used a Stardust gel pen to go over the letters for some glimmer. The larger snowflakes were die cut out of aqua & white glitter card & arranged on one side of the wreath. Some of the waste from the snowflake centers was added around the plain white part of the wreath & I also added some stickles here & there. All in all, a pretty quick card!
