Hi guys. I hope that you are all well.
As promised here are some more of my Mum's quilled snowflakes that I made some cards up with. As I mentioned before on a previous post each of the snowflakes are different and although I designed the cards for them to match one another - each of these are slightly different too. Take a look and you'll see what I mean!
As before I used the Papermania
Snowflake folder to emboss a white panel and then decorated the embossed panel using the
Winter Trails Inkadinkado stamp set along with a silver inkpad and Stardust embossing powder. The wording (which came from an old Impressions Obsessions stamp set) was stamped using Brilliance Starlight Black.
Here's a closer look at Mum's snowflake for you which she lightly glittered using Silver glitter glue. As you can see I mounted into some Nestabilities die-cuts - Petite Scalloped Circle and Circle.
Same decorated background for this card - just a different Nestabilities used -
Blossom.
A closer look at the snowflake for you.
And another snowflake card - this time with a
Labels die-cut.
See what I mean about each of the snowflakes being different!
And another snowflake card with a different
Label die-cut.
Quite a lacey looking snowflake this one!
So after doing quite a few of these silver and white snowflake cards I decided to ring the changes a little and introduce my favourite colour of lilac! I've told Mum that she is to give me this as my Christmas card next year but I'm not sure if she'll take any notice!!
She did a good job with all the different snowflakes didn't she? This isn't all of them though!! I did make 3 more up into cards which I'll show you next time plus she has got a box full of snowflakes for me to tackle another time!!
Now back at the beginning of the year I was delighted about being given this lovely award from
