Welcome to Week 6 of the Art With Heart, Heart of Christmas. This year we will be hopping weekly, so hopefully we can provide you with some festive inspiration. Our host for this year's blog hop is the lovely Sharon Davern.
Following on from the last couple of weeks I have continued to play with more of the new products from the September to December mini which are now available for you to purchase. This week I have had fun creating with the new stamp set, Sparkling Snowflakes.
The starting point was to stamp multiple snowflake images using Versamark in each of the sizes onto a piece of O Holy Night paper and then emboss them in Silver. The paper has an ombre effect from Misty Moonlight to Night of Navy. This was then mounted on to a piece of Snowflake Magic Specialty Designer Series Paper featuring white and silver. This was then mounted onto a piece of Night of Navy cardstock.
The sentiment is from the stamp set Brightest Glow and has been stamped in Night of Navy onto White card. This has then been die cut using one of the Something Fancy dies and then mounted onto a piece of Night of Navy card that has been die cut using one of the Brightest Glow dies. Finally a ribbon tied using Silver and White Sheer ribbon.
As the card base is Navy a lighter and in this case white insert needed to be added. I have also added a sentiment from Brightest Glow stamped in Night of Navy.

Great creative decision, to silver-emboss the snowflakes on that beautiful DSP, instead of solid cardstock, T. It looks really lovely. The sentiment labels layer together really well, and I love the ribbon. Beautiful, festive, card.
ReplyDeleteVery elegant card Theresa, the O Holy Night looks great as the background for your snowflakes
ReplyDeleteOh those sparkling embossed snowflakes are so pretty, Theresa! Such an elegant card in navy and silver.
ReplyDeleteTheresa I love how you have stamped your snowflakes on the ombré DSP resulting in a sparkly and silvery sky. The added sheer and silver-edged ribbon is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThose silver snowfllake flurries are gorgeous embossed. I can imagine to beautiful shine. The sentiment with the navy diecut at either end looks wonderful. Lovely card, Theresa.
ReplyDeleteSilver and beautiful blues - such a gorgeous colour combination, Theresa.
ReplyDeleteThe silver snowflakes are perfect against the dark background Theresa. Your choice of greeting is fabulous as its elegance really suits your card.
