Snowflakes!

Today I want to share a card I made with the Simon Says Stamp Card Kit Festive Holiday 2012.  I added some wooden snowflakes and pearls from my stash.

I cut the patterned paper to size and wiped white acrylic paint around the edge to distress.  I layered it on red cardstock (from the kit also) and adhered to a 5.25 x 5.25 in card base.  I added the Basic Grey Aspen Frost die cut shape/sentiment with pop dots, added the painted snowflakes (again with the white acrylic paint) and added pearls to the paper/snowflakes.

Really beautiful card Deirdre. The way you have the slim mat red CS works beautifully then to make the red die cut pop. Merry Christmas, Nicola x

This is so delightful, Deirdre. The "frosty" corners add so much to this winter theme, and I love the pop of red with your sentiment. Outstanding! Merry Christmas!
