AYSI707 Warm Christmas Blessings

Happy Tuesday, all! Another week and the Atlantic Hearts sketch challenge is up, and I am still making Christmas cards!  Here we go:


And here's our sketch:


I just got some new Tim Holtz snowflake stamps & dies, and the sketch was perfect to get them inky! I stamped one of the snowflakes in Blueberry Bushel ink and diecut it out, then mounted it on a piece of dark blue foil; I know it looks black here, but it's a very pretty shade of blue!


I added some diecut strips in Blueberry Bushel and Bordering Blue, then mounted them all on a panel that was embossed with a Waffle Flower snowflake cover plate.  The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp, and I stamped it in Blueberry Bushel, then Versamark, then added Heat & Stick Powder and some blue glitter.  Probably not the best sentiment to try this technique on, since the top words are so small, but I'm "sticking" to it! I mounted it on a wee scrap of printed vellum I had out and added some sequins and rhinestones to finish it off.  Here's the inside:


Sentiment stamped in Blueberry Bushel, another snowflake in Cloud Cover.  What a great sketch! I hop you'll play along at Atlantic Hearts this week!
