Mod Squad - Just Snowflakes

Dear Ones~

This time over at The Mod Squad Challenge we are doing JUST SNOWFLAKES.  You MUST include only snowflakes and nothing else on your card front or your entry will be eliminated so as not to skew the random drawing. You may include a greeting, but snowflakes MUST be your complete focal.

Here's my card:

For this card I used the GKD stamp set Sparkling Snowflakes. I blended the background with GKD Inks In the Navy, Blue Raspberry and Wild Wisteria, and then took some GKD Watermark and Embossing Ink to stamp some of the snowflake images from the stamp set for a tone on tone look. That gave me the background. I made a “stamp pad” with paper towel and poured some bleach on it to use as “ink”. I then took some of the snowflake stamps, dipped them in the bleach, and stamped on the blended background. I was amazed at how well the bleach brought the snowflake images back to white. I think it has kind of a batik look. The die cut snowflake is from the GKD Snowflake Trio Die set, cut 4 times and layered together. The greeting is also from the Sparkling Snowflakes stamp set. It was heat embossed with GKD White Fine Detail Embossing Powder. Card stocks used are GKD White Heavy Base Weight and Powder Blue. Panels were cut with Master Layouts 7 Die Set.

 Thanks for stopping by, I always enjoy your comments. And don't forget to swing on over to The Mod Squad Challenge and play along. You could win the prize.

Until next time, here's celebrating 

your Creative Muse.
