Frosty Winter Wishes
Hello my crafty friends! I started today's card by cutting the Plume Corner six times out of Arctic Blue card. I nipped them in half and rebuilt them so they were closer together. I cut a Double Stitched Circle die in white and made a small frame. I added mounting foam to the back and attached it to a piece of white card. I glued it in place in the centre of the Plume Corners. I cut the Frosty Winter Wishes out of Silver Sparkle card and shadowed it in black. I nipped the words apart and glued the "Frosty" in the top and added the "winter wishes" below. I ran a line of dries clear glue around the white background and sprinkled Iced Snow on it and set it aside to dry. I cut the Twinkle Star Background out of Silver Sparkle card and used the fall away stars and added them to the background, frame and sentiment. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 8" x 8" in size. All for now, Sue x
