last Christmas snowflake


Just one last Christmas card to share. I tend to put my christmas craft supplies away now for a few months so this is the last one for now, or the first one of 2024.


For this card I first took a square of plane white card and die cut a snowflake out the side using the Sweet Poppy snowflake die. I then put that card through an embossing folder to add the pattern. On the base card I stamped a Stampscapes cabin in black so it would be in the centre of the snowflake aperture. Then I've added distress ink to the image, plus a little pencil colour to the cottage. Then a sentiment from Christmas Tidings printed sentiment set. I quite like this final card.

I would like to enter this in the following challenges

Stamps and fun - snowflake
Peace on Earth - Anything Christmas
Allsorts - Cold and Ice
