Snowflake stripes

STRIPES AND/OR DOTS

I’m in full Christmas creating mode at the moment and if a card fits a challenge, great, if not, no worries. Choosing the layout I liked quite a lot from a while ago challenge I decided to cut some PP for a background. Quite by accident the paper I chose fits with the Double D challenge so here is one of the several cards that works.

I don’t measure the PP, just eyeball it and cut. As the paper is two sided it is very easy to match because its all in the same colour family. In this case, snowflakes on one side and stripes on the other. Using an older and much loved favourite GKD die I cut a few snowflakes from holographic paper and added them both in front and behind the larger StampinUP snowflake. I initially thought I would use it alone, but it didn’t standout enough. The dies used for the words are from Spellbinders and I cut the one shown here in both silver and black, slightly offsetting them so it would standout from the background. I added one silvery large gem to the center of the snowflake and decided that adding more would be a mistake.

I hope your day has been going well. I’ve managed 6 more cards today so I feel productive. Thanks for stopping by, it is appreciated.
