Snowflake Wishes is Delightful

This stamp set and the matching dies are just delightful to work with. They make creating so easy! There are many fun ways to use the stamps and dies. I loved this idea inspired by Tammy Wilson who is an Artisan Demonstrator for Stampin' Up!

To create the snowflakes, I sponged the colors on Whisper White Cardstock with a blending brush (soon to be added to the Stampin' Up! store). I used Coastal Cabana, Highland Heather and Balmy Blue.

I cut out the snowflakes from part of the paper and I cut a 5" x 3 3/4" panel for the card front.

I attached the card front panel to a card base of Purple Posy cardstock.

I embossed a 5 1/4" x 4" piece of vellum with the Winter Snow embossing folder. I tore off the bottom edge of the vellum, brushed the edge with Highland Heather ink and attached the vellum to the card.

The vellum is attached with small strips of Stampin' Seal. The adhesive did not show through the vellum because of the embossing. Perfect!

After attaching the snowflakes with glue and painting them with a bit of Wink Of Stella (I hope you can see the sparkle), I added the greeting with Stampin Dimensionals. The greeting is stamped in Versamark on Highland Heather cardstock and heat embossed with White embossing powder.

This is topped off with lots of self adhesive Snowflake Sequins - lovely!

And don't forget the finish the inside - I used the negative of the die cut snow flakes to stencil the images on a piece of Whisper White Cardstock, using the same wonderful colors but keeping them very muted - like shadows.
