Addicted to CAS: Snowflake..
Hey,
So I thought I'd play along with a challenge tonight.. and I was looking at some of my faves and this popped up over at Addicted to CAS..
Just so happens I had a gorgeous Penny Black Snowflake die sitting on my desk :)
I thought it would make a great CAS card for a friend.
I die-cut the snowflakes (there are x2 pieces to the die) out of scraps of gold paper. The black background was die-cut using a stitched rectangle die and the card blank was a lucky find in my stash, it's a bronze/gold-ish colour. WHOOP!!
I stamped the sentiment from Simon Says Stamp 'Four Seasons Saying' using Versamark embossing ink and used gold Pearl-Ex over the top (still learning, hence the shimmer in the photo!). I then die-cut it out using a tag die.
Once I had affixed the snowflakes and the tag together, I punched a hole and tied it all together with a piece of gold thread.
I love how simple and impactful my card is and it was a great way to use a Snowflake not on a Christmas card.
