The bird was added to the card front on Dimensionals.

Using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, I glued the bulb holders to the bulbs and added Dimensionals to the back of each bulb. 3 bulbs were then strung on to a ‘string’ and secured onto an embossed panel with the Dimensionals. The ends of the ‘strings’ were folded to the back and secured in place with Sellotape.

A pretty snowflake themed Christmas card made using the Sparkling Snowflakes and More Wishes stamp sets by Stampin' Up!

Sparkling Snowflakes Christmas card

I have been using the Sparkling Snowflakes stamp set in combination with the More Wishes stamp set to make a pretty snowflake Christmas card.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the sparkling snowflakes card, you will need:

Pool Party card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Misty Moonlight card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – one for the inside
Misty Moonlight card – 3¾” by 1⅝”
Basic White card – 3¾” by 1½”

 

I cut a strip of Masking Paper 1 ½” wide and adhered it just over half way up one of the 5½” by 3¾” panels of Basic White card.

The largest snowflake image was stamped in Pool Party ink above and below the masking paper. The medium sized snowflake was stamped next in Bubble Bath ink.

The smallest snowflake was added in Misty Moonlight ink, filling in all the gaps. The Masking Paper was then removed. The decorated panel was glued to the Misty Moonlight layer which was then glued to the Pool Party card base.

The large sentiment was stamped in Pool Party ink onto the strip of Basic White card. The smaller sentiment was added in Misty Moonlight ink and the strip was then adhered to the 3¾” by 1⅝” piece of Misty Moonlight card. The sentiment piece was then mounted onto the card on Dimensionals.
