Another kreation from stamping the night away with some friends. I love how this turned out. Serene and Lovely :) I took the general idea from this Dasher card I did and changed the focal image. There is something about Kraft and Soft Suede and the vintage feel, that I just love!
* Kraft standard card base. Distressed the edges with my Sponge Dauber and Soft Suede.
* Serene Snowflakes, inked in Soft Suede (some stamped off on scrap for a lighter image) and Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint, kreated a soft and pretty background.
* Ran a piece of Whisper White and Top Note Die through the Big Shot
* Inked up the trees image from Lovely as a Tree in Soft Suede ink.
* Inked up the stamp again in VersaMark and slightly offset it to the original Soft Suede image. Added Iridescent Ice Embossing Powder and set the sparkle with my Heat Tool. GORGEOUS, I tell ya. Click on the photo to enlarge for a close up - sorry it is so difficult to capture sparkle. But it is truly so pretty in person!
* Used the Horizontal Slot Punch and slipped a piece of the Wide Choc Chip Striped Ribbon through a tied it off with a linen thread bow.
* Added my sentiment from Many Merry Messages in Soft Suede again. Love it!
