Stamps: Uniko - Background Builders Christmas, Simply Said Christmas, All Occasion Sentiments #4
Inks: Stampin' Up! - Midnight Muse; Versamark
Accessories: Cream Lustre Card; SU Card - Midnight Muse; Martha Stewart Glitter; Stampendous - Shabby White Embossing Powder
The challenge at The Card Concept - CC#45 uses cream and navy and the challenge graphic features snowflakes - the perfect inspiration! My style is clean and layered. Over at The Paper Players - PP#274 their theme this week is "Let it Snow", here's a blizzard.
I made the base from navy card (sadly now discontinued). I cut a panel of cream card slightly smaller and used my MISTI to stamp the repeat pattern of snowflakes in navy. I cut a strip of navy card, stamped the sentiment in Versamark and heat embossed with a new embossing powder - it contains gold glitter and works perfectly with the cream card. I finished the front with a simple sparkly Christmas tree. I stamped it in navy ink, cut it out, added glue to the inside and then lots of glitter. On the inside I cut another panel of cream card. I stamped a couple more of the border stamps from Background Builders Christmas and finished with a bold Christmas greeting made up from stamps from two different sets. I love the way Bev's stamps all work together perfectly.

I love these single line borders, and you did such a great card with using several lines in a very lovely pattern and looks like shades of blue. Great inspiration.
