Here is a sparkling Christmas card. This card was fun to make and a little challenging. The metallic glitter paper is kind of thick so cutting with the snowflake die took quite a few runs through my Big Shot. After I finished the card, a little bell went off in my head - I think the last time I used this glitter paper, I turned the paper upside down so the backing was on top and would cut first. duh??
Anyhow, I saw this sketch last week on Pinterest and thought I would try a couple different cards. A solid blue basic card folded a couple times with a lovely delicate snowflake on the front and one on the inside along with a die cut Merry Christmas sentiment.
A simple yet elegant Christmas card. Great to send to a man or minimalist friend.
My second card for this sketch will be in another post.
