Sparkly Winter Wishes

Hi everyone! BlogStar Yana Smakula here. Today I though I’d share with you one of my favorite types of card – white snowflakes on kraft cardstock.

Having a few different snowflake stamps in your stash allows you to create wonderful and each time different winter backgrounds.

For this card I used snowflakes as well as the snow globe and the sentiment from the SSC1148 Kiddo Snow Globe stamp set.

To create this card I used:

• Kraft cardstock from Bazzill Basics;
• White cardstock;
• Stamps from SSC1148 Kiddo Snow Globe stamp set;
• Versamark embossing pad;
• Winter Wonderland EP171 embossing powder;
• White embossing power;
• Clear embossing powder;
• Frantage Shaved Ice FRG10C glitter;
• Red twine from My Mind’s Eye.

I stamped snowflakes onto kraft cardstock using embossing ink and covered with winter wonderland embossing powder. Its a truly wonderful embossing powder for winter projects as its not your typical white, but a mixture of white with fine silver.

 

Using white pigment ink I lightly inked the edges of the kraft cardstock:

I than stamped the snow globe on kraft and covered it with white embossing powder, I also stamped snow inside of it:

Using clear embossing powder I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment inside the snow globe:

I adhered Frantage Shaved Ice glitter using Zip Dry Glue from Beacon Adhesives:

Finally I cut out the snow globe, added twine and adhered to card using dimensional adhesive:
