FS88

I had some time to do the Featured Stamper Challenge today. I chose this card of Anne Ryan's to CASE. I've been meaning to try out Snow Swirled since I purchased it (in August I think!) and thought this challenge would be perfect for use with this set.


First, I rubbed my Embossing Buddy over the paper to eliminate static, then stamped the image in Versamark and embossed with Gold Glory embossing powder. I adhered it to some Brushed Gold paper and punched small holes in the centres of the snowflakes to insert a gold brad in each. Brushed Gold paper folded in half forms the card base and a piece of Basic Black cardstock is adhered to the front. I accidentally adhered it before I tied the ribbon (from Pink Hedgehog Papercrafts) so I carefully had to lift part of it up. I tied the ribbon and then stuck it back down the best I could! Once that was done, the tree piece was adhered to the front with dimensionals.


I think this is a very elegant looking Christmas Card. It may make the cut for my card camp! Easy, but with a bit of wow to it.


Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today! Happy Thanksgiving to my Canadian friends :)
