Nothing like having a beachy themed LO on monday, and a snowy card today! I guess that kind of fits with living in Chicago, where the temps can fluctuate from 98 degrees one day to 54 the next! ; )
JustRite is releasing their new sets this week and this one called, Snowfall, is beautiful. I decided to use a sort of "Spotlighting" technique on it. I stamped it with Versamark and white embossing powder, but then also stamped it with pink, blue, and purple die inks. I used 2 sizes of circle punch to punch several circles and layer them over the white background. I think it makes for a neat effect!
The flowers and felt "leaves" are by Prima. I coated the leaves with Stickles to give it a bit of sparkle. I also added a bit seam binding tied with a thin white string. The sentiment is part of the Large Fancy Holiday Sentiments. I absolutely LOVE the font used in this set!
I added a few pearls too. : )
Here is a peek at the two sets!
Be sure to visit the other gals and see what they've created with these beautiful sets!
I am off to get caught up on a lot of things that were left neglected in my house.....it IS the first day of summer vacation! ; )
Have a great day!!!
