... Hello! I've got into a bad habit of not making enough cards and then having to rush to make them when I need one. So today, I'm sharing a snowy birthday card - I've lots of birthdays in the months from November to February - so this is perfect for my stash.
Stamps: MFT - Simply Snowflakes, Sassy Pants Birthday Greetings 2, Bitty Birthday Wishes
Inks: Stampin' Up! - Balmy Blue; Gina K - Powder Blue; Memento - Summer Sky, Paris Dusk; Hero Arts - Unicorn
Dies: MFT - Stylish Snowflakes
Accessories: White Card; SU Card - Night of Navy, Balmy Blue; Holographic Card; Gem
I'm submitting this card to Just Us Girls - JUGS#567 (use blues), Fusion - FUSION#0121 (I used the sketch), and Cardz 4 Guyz - C4G#262 (where it's Let it Snow).
I randomly stamped some snowflake images on the background using three shades of blue ink. I cut two thin strips of blue card and stamped a birthday greeting in white on the navy strip. I adhered them flat to the card. I finished the front by die-cutting a silver holographic snowflake, adhered it to the blue strips and added a simple blue gem in the centre. I used the sketch from Fusion for the card. On the inside, I cut a panel of blue card for the mat layer and on the white layer added a fun birthday greeting in dark blue, along with several more blue snowflakes.
Great combination of sketches! I love the simplicity of our card! Thanks for playing along with our "let it snow" challenge!!

ReplyDeleteSuch a fun birthday card! Love all your different tones of blue and that sparkly snowflake to accentuate the greeting. Thanks for joining us at Color Hues!
ReplyDeleteLove the die cut snowflake, so delicate and sparkly. The blues certainly work for the stamped elements as does the sentiment strip.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing at Cardz4Guyz and Color Hues. :)
