Happy Saturday, peeps! Today is feeling more like fall than summer in SE PA! Chilly rain and winds! A perfect day to stay inside and clean my stamp room!! We'll see if that actually happens! I do have a Christmas card for the Jingle Belle's challenge this week, which is White Christmas. My card is almost all white, I did add some Crumb Cake for contrast:
These Swirly Snowflake dies were on my wish list for a long time, but I felt they were probably too intricate and fussy, but when I saw they returned in the catalog this year, I decided to go for them! They are just beautiful and not difficult to use at all, especially using the Die Brush to poke out all the little pieces! I cut one layer of the intricate snowflakes, and another of the outline and layered them together, then placed them on a card I had embossed with a Darice snowflake embossing folder:
The sentiment from Better Together was stamped in Soft Suede and diecut with a Stitched Shapes circle die. My only other embellishment was a white ribbon! Easy peasy!
Some reading time with Grampy:
Did you know that dragons like tacos?! According to the book, they do! Enjoy your day and be blessed!
