Snow and sparkle

I was commissioned to make some cards for the latest issue of Die Cutting Essentials using some Hobbycraft Intricut dies, which consisted of a Snow Globe a Snowflake doily and Snowflakes, I used quite a few Meiflower stick on gems for the centres of the snowflakes and decoration, I also used a couple of ribbons and a diamante buckle.





I used mainly Aurora Borealis gems from the multi size pack, but there are also some pink and blue ones in there as well as pink pearls.

If designed the papers myself and the magazine are giving them away as a free download, if you like the look of them you can nab them HERE.

Thanks for dropping in,
take care,

Here are a couple of cards made for Simply cards and Papercraft which arrived in the shops on 13th July. I got to play with some Kate Hadfield digi stamps and I also made some matching papers which you can download for free from HERE.

I have used grosgrain ribbon and the bunting is hanging from Meiflower waxed cord.

The gorgeous purple satin ribbon and matching purple gems are also from Meiflower.
