While I am not a huge fan of snow, I always love snowflake cards because the shades of blue are stunning and you have to have bling!!! This card was super simple and uses just one ink pad and one stamp set!!! Love it!!!
I started with an Island Indigo card base. Then I took a piece of Whisper White (4″ x 5-1/4″) and stamped the snowflakes from the Stitched With Cheer Stamp Set all over. I used Island Indigo Ink and stamped a few times before going back to the ink pad so I would get various shades. I used the big image as well as the little one to fill in. Be sure to fall off the cardstock so that it looks like the pattern continues on. You could also use Shimmery White cardstock for a more glittery look! For the greeting, I stamped it from the Stitched With Cheer Stamp Set onto scrap white and punched it out with the Decorative Label Punch. I punched out another one in Island Indigo and cut it in half to layer on the back of the greeting. Click here to see how I did that. I placed a strip of the Silver Glitter Ribbon across the cardstock and adhered the ends to the back and attached this to the card base. I added the greeting to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals for a little texture and so that it would lay flat over the ribbon running under it. I finished it off with some Rhinestones on either side of the greeting for even more bling!
There is also Pink Glitter Ribbon so you could do this same card in silver and pinks which would be fabulous as well. You all know how I love pink! This card would make for a great Winter card if you happened to not get Christmas cards done in time or if you wish to place a photo from Christmas morning in the card. Also, if you have leftovers that didn’t get sent out, you could send them out as January Birthday cards! ๐

Stunning! Love the silver ribbon,too. I agree with you about using the pink ribbon on Christmas cards,too. I have seen some cards that used quite a few shades of pink on there Christmas cards and I liked them. Thanks, Jeannine
