I was so excited to play with the Turkish Nights Embossing Glitter!! And let me tell you, it didn't disappoint! It is so sparkly and gorgeous and worked perfectly for snowflakes. Non-traditional snowflakes, that is!
I stamped a bunch of snowflakes that are from the previously released P&M stamp set, Flurries. This is a chunky glitter so some details were lost but that didn't bother me at all! I used the co-ordinating Flurries Dies to cut out each snowflake. To continue on with this glittery theme, I die cut a "snowbank" using the Scallop Waves Dies and swiped the WOW Embossing Pad along the top to add some shimmery snow.
To create a wintery background, I blended Shaded Lilac and Victorian Velvet Distress Inks onto my panel. I should mention that the panel was cut using the Cloudy Frame Dies but I only used the inner portion.
Not a super great blend (or photo, I apologize) but our beautiful snowflakes will cover most of that background! I used the Snow Sweet Stamp set and co-ordinating dies for my focal image. This set is filled with the cutest snow people, ever!!
I coloured these sweeties with my alcohol markers and popped them up on the blended panel. All the snowflakes were adhered using liquid glue.
This stamp set lets you "build" your own sentiment so I chose "You're Snow Wonderful". Because the snow is a bolder font, I was able to use the Turkish Nights embossing glitter on it as well!
I had "Snow Much Fun" (hahaha) making this card. Glittery snowflakes and cute snow people-can't go wrong with that!!
