I have another snowflake card today. I have used the sketch from Merry Monday #17 shown below... I'll also have to to check at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown and see if I can enter a second card there.
Most of my supplies are from Stampin' Up -- all except the ivory card base and ribbon. I used a seafoam white embossing powder for the snowflakes and sentiment. The little snowflakes on the sentiment tag are rub-ons from SU; the partial snowflake was a "happy" accident -- it was supposed to go on the other side but I like the "home" that it found for itself! The ribbon wraps around the card and there's another snowflake on the inside where the ribbon edges meet. Tools used were SU circle punches, a Martha Stewart border punch and Spellbinder's Ribbon Tags Trio 2.
Hope you all have a wonderful day and no real snowflakes -- our weather is beautiful here today. I have all the doors open with a wonderful breeze coming into the house and I'm looking out at a day filled with sunshine and colorful hibiscus, oleander and other miscellaneous flowers in the garden. A friend gave me some cuttings from a pencil cactus in her yard and they all have new little shoots on them. I had pencil cactus (cacti?) in Texas and am glad that I was able to find some here. Now I just need some purple iris!!
By for now,
Betty
