My card today is a 4-bar card. It measures 3 1/2 x 5. All the paper and card stock is from stash (working really hard on using my stash). So my card base is an ivory card stock. I used pattern paper from an old collection from Recollections (which is the Michael's brand). The silver glitter is from Pretty Papers from Queen & Co. I cut the glitter piece 3 1/4 x 4 3/4, this paper is self adhesive so I removed the release paper and attached the paper to the light blue patterned paper. I stamped the sentiment "Season's Greetings" from the North Pole set inSimon Says Stamp clear ink and used silver embossing powder which of course I heat set. The snowflakes on the sentiment piece are from a snowflake from the same set. Now its the snowflake at the top of one of the other sentiments from the set but I carefully cut it away so I could use it create my background. To create my snowflake embellishment I used the snowflake from the Pinpoint Snowflake Circle Frame from Memory Box. I cut one snowflake from the glitter paper and one from the same blue that I used to stamp the sentiment. I adhered them together with liquid glue. I offset them just a bit before the glue could dry and then I glued it to the corner. I put a clear crystal in the center of the piece. To add some extra sparkle (cause the glitter paper wasn't enough) I added a small clear crystal to the center of three of the snowflakes in my background. The sparkle on this card is ridiculous but I am so happy with how this turned out. For one final finishing touch (and to cover a mistake that was making me crazy) I added some white ribbon that is silver edged to the bottom of the card.
I hope you will check out the North Pole stamp set and all the other amazing sets available at The Project Bin. This is all I have for you today, thank you for stopping by.
Come and create something with me.
