RemARKable Holiday Madness Blog Tour - Post 2



This Vintage Snowflake Card is one of my favorites! I used the Northern Flurry Textured Impressions Embossing Folder with Naturals Ivory Cardstock for the front panel of this card. I used a stampin' sponge and Soft Suede ink to "age" the front panel. The snowflakes really "pop" when sponged with ink. I also sponged the edges of the Naturals Ivory cardstock to give the card a vintage look. I layered the snowflake layer onto a piece of Always Artichoke, then layered this onto the Cherry Cobbler card. I tied some linen thread into a bow for that homespun look. Here are the supplies I used to make this card:



Stamps: Christmas Greetings (115448, $10.95)

Cardstock: Cherry Cobbler (119685, $6.95), Always Artichoke (105119, $6.95), Naturals Ivory (101849, $7.50)

Ink: Cherry Cobbler (119669, $5.95), Soft Suede (115657, $5.95)

Sizzix items: Northern Flurry Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (120902, $7.95)

Accessories: Linen Thread (104199, $4.50)



See you tomorrow with another Holiday creation!
