Swirly Snowflake Christmas Card

While Fall has barely arrived, today I'm thinking about simple, mailable Christmas and holiday cards. 


I have wanted to use the Swirly Snowflakes Thinlits Die so that is where I started.  I cut the border snowflake from Whisper White, white snowflakes make my heart melt!  I was positive I would love the white snowflakes against Shimmery White Card Stock, but it wasn't my favorite so I grabbed Thick Very Vanilla Card Stock and got the contrast I was looking for.




I stamped the snowflake from Snowflake Sentiments in Versamark.  The greeting, from Hearts Come Home, was also stamped in Versamark and heat embossed with Silver Embossing Powder.  I used the Embossing Buddy over the snowflake to make certain the embossing powder didn't stick to the snowflake.  Swirly Snowflake Thinlits and Snowflake Sentiments are available as a bundle and you get 10% discount when you buy the bundle!



I tied some of my favorite ribbon, 1/4" Natural Trim in Silver, across the top. Simple and done!




Here is the Whisper White snowflake diecut on Shimmery White with 1/8" Silver Ribbon.  Pretty, but not quite as much contrast, though the subtleties are lost a bit with my photography of these cards.



I've got two more simple Christmas cards that I'll be posting this week.  


Have you heard?  Coming soon for customers:  Stampin' Blends, Stampin' Up! alcohol makers. Can't wait? You can get them now!  Join my team and you can get them all for $99, but only through October 15!  You get $125 worth of product for just $99 and that includes shipping!  There is no further commitment if you decide being a demonstrator (and getting discounted product) just isn't for you. The Customer Release date has not yet been announced, but Stampin' Up! is making them available to demonstrators for a short period of time.




Mine just arrived and I sat down to try them out.  Here is my first try at them.  They are easy to use, blend beautifully, and Wink of Stella works over them!



You can get all these products from my online store.  Use my October Host Code SKYPQPPJ when placing your order, no need to use the code when your product totals $150 or more as you qualify for free product with that!

Thank you for looking, now, go stamp!
