Diva Tosh brings us Verve's fourth sketch of the month and it was a fun one to play with. I cheated just a bit by omitting the split panel and using a bigger circle.This yummy MME paper was my starting point. Love the touch of glitter on the leaves. It's there, honest, just had a hard time capturing it on camera.
Carried the glitter theme over to the snowflake and used a lot of white accents - most likely due to a subconscious and very direct correlation with the colour of snow lol! The card is fairly flat, so think I can get away with an easy mailing too :)
Oh, and for the record, the snowflakes in the title refer to the kind on my cards, not the kind that fall on the ground LOL!
What's In It?
Stamps: Memory Box
Paper: I Believe (MME), Night of Navy, Burgundy, Sparkly Silver
Ink: Black, VersaMark
Accessories: Snowflake Die (The Cat's Pajamas), Circle Nesties, Scalloped Border Punch (Stampin' Up), Crimper, Button, Silver Twine, Glue Dot, Dimensionals
Adorable and well done! The layout is awesome too! :)

ReplyDeleteLove that glittery snowflake! I really hope we get some real snow this year. We barely got any last year, and we had one of the worst years for seasonal allergies due to a warmer winter. :(

ReplyDeleteNo matter how you dress them up or color them, your snowflakes always enhance your cards wonderfully! I have to say though, that sparkle is my favorite way to dress up!
