Hello my crafty friends! Here's another card from my recent Hochanda Festive shows which is on offer today. If you would like a chance to win this one, just leave a comment to be entered into the drawing. I started by cutting the Frosty Mini Background out of white card. I used the oval from the Lattice Snowflake set to cut an aperture in the centre. I added mounting foam to the back to raise it. I made a frame to go around the aperture by using the outer ovals from the Peeking Snowflake and the Lattice Snowflake set. I mounted it with foam to raise it over the aperture. Next I embossed a piece of Blue Dusk card using the Frosted Stripes embossing folder. I mounted it behind my aperture. I cut two of the Peace On Earth die, one in white and one in black. I nipped away the "on Earth" part on both, leaving just the word "Peace." I offset the black on behind the white one to create a shadow and mounted it in the centre of the aperture. I cut several of the Classic Poinsettias in white, sprayed them with glue and coated them with Diamond Sprinkles. I assembled them by offsetting two per flower and then adding a Black Dazzler in the centres. I seated the larger flower on some white tulle and Bakers Twine in the lower right corner. The smaller two flowers were attached in the opposite corner. The finishing mats were added in my usual manner. The finished dimensions are 7" x 8" in size. I will announce the winner on Saturday's blog post. All for now, Sue x
