Today I have a 5×7 Christmas card featuring a really big snowflake. It will fit a regular A2 card, but I wanted a little more room around it to add some pretty paper. A few glitter snowflakes and a red glitter embossed greeting are all that are needed to finish it.
It’s my turn to host the Featured Stamper Challenge FS1032, so a big congrats to Martha! She has sweet little gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the colors & Christmas theme w/ the greener, but I used a big snowflake & designer paper instead of stamps. I also moved the greeting.
To make my card, I die cut the 2 part snowflake (which technically cuts 3 pieces). The top part out of white, the border & backing out of dk pine green. After I layered them together, I added a little strip of red glitter to the top edge. I used the 3rd & 4th largest sizes of the 5×7 dies to cut the printed paper & pine green backing layer. The greeting was heat embossed with a red glitter powder & I used a skinny strip die to cut a piece of red glitter, then trimmed off one end to fit the greeting. The greeting set has matching dies, which I used, but I wanted a little pop of red behind it. Two sizes of mini snowflakes were cut out of red glitter & white glitter.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
