Merry Christmas

Hello bloggers!  I started today's card by cutting the  Snowflake Floating die out of white card.  I used spray glue on it (due to the detail, it was easier than trying to cut it with a sticky adhesive sheet attached) and coated it with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz.  I added small pieces of mounting foam to the back of it.  I attached it to a piece of card that I marbled using shaving foam and assorted alcohol inks (there is a tutorial on it at the top of the blog).  I had some of it leftover so I cut the oval out of it using the Double Stitched Oval die set.  I added mounting foam to the back of the frame and attached it to a piece of white card.  I added it to the centre of the  Snowflake Floating background.  I cut the Noble Merry Christmas out of silver sparkle card and glued it to the inside of the frame.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/4"  x  8 1/2" in size.  


All for now, Sue x

Pretty but not too sure on the colours. Without the sentiment I thought it was a spring or summer card as at a quick glance the background looks like daisys.
