Two posts ago I told you about my totally unsuccessful encounter with glitter. One of the attempts survived and I used it on this card.
The snowflake suspended in the cut out circle comes from one of Jennifer's cards. I wanted to try the background technique that Kathy did on a recent card. Here is the card she did it on... enter at your own risk... it may be hours before you come out! :-) Mine isn't nearly that perfect but I decided imperfect was what I was going for! :-) Yea right - heehee. I embossed the notecard and then applied white ink to the raised areas. The first time I tried this I swiped it and it got way too much ink. Kathy told me to dab the pad on it and that worked much better.
Supplies: Hero Arts notecards, greeting; Cuttlebug embossing folder, ColorBox Frost White pigment ink, 2-3/4 inch circle punch, Silver glitter, Snowflake die (sorry, can't figure out what brand this is), blue pearl
I think it looks perfect Jana. I love the idea of the snowflake in the circle. Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
