The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the bottom and the fold is on the top.
On the front of the card I used my blending brush and Pool Party ink and scrubbed the color in about half way up.
I took a 4-1/4" x 5-1/2"piece of Basic White and I cut it using the die from the "Frozen Edges" die set. I just guessed at how far I wanted it up on that piece. This will depend on the wording you are going to use.
The words are from the "Sparkling Snowflakes" set and were stamped using Pool Party ink.
I glued the "Frozen Edges" piece in place. I didn't want to use tape because I was afraid it might rip some of the delicate detailed snowflakes.
Next I took some scrap pieces of Basic White card stock and I lightly scrubbed on some Pool Party ink. I cut out the snowflakes using the die from the "One of a Kind" bundle. I glued them in place on the upper part of the card. Then I had an after thought. Being the wording mentioned sparkle, I thought the snowflakes should sparkle so I took my Wink of Stella pen and colored the snowflakes. It didn't show up in the picture but they do have a nice shimmer to them.
This was a very fun and quick card to make. I like how soft it looks.
Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Christmas card,
Wanda
