Thailand Achiever's Blog Hop - Silver Snowflake Sentiments

Hello My Friends!  

Today we have another Holiday Catalogue Blog Hop to delight you. You are here at my blog - Cynthia Millan - But make certain you check out all the bloggers (list at bottom of this post) so you can see all the gorgeous projects we've shared.   

My card uses the Snowflake Sentiments bundle (Snowflake Sentiments stamp set and Swirly Snowflakes thinlits dies) and truly, this card is all about the sparkle and shine!   

I used the Swirly Snowflakes thinlits to cut 2 of the strips of snowflakes from Whisper White cardstock and glued these onto Silver Foil on either side of a gatefold card.

The sentiment is heat embossed using versamark and silver embossing powder on Whisper White cardstock.  Cut this with the Layering ovals framelit, then mount this onto a silver scalloped oval (same set of framelits) and this onto another white oval (same set of framelits).   

Sigh.  You didn't realize it would be so easy to create a STUNNING card, did you?

(Honestly, I mean it?  Who doesn't love silver?  And snowflakes?)

It was actually way harder to photograph this card (because of all the sparkle and shine) than it was to create it!

And by the way - the "new" Big Shot platform (see it HERE, #142802) is a WONDERFUL investment for those of you who still own the old-style multipurpose platform with layers that open up on a hinge.  The new platform, combined with the Big Shot die brush (see it HERE, #144262), make cutting intricate dies like this snowflake one an absolute breeze!  And all the little bits and chits pop out easily too.

And if you don't have a Big Shot....?  GASP!  You really, really, really, REALLY deserve one (as an early Christmas gift?).  Don't you??  Check it out HERE (#143263).
 
I know you will love the Holiday Catalogue as much as I do.  Take a look at the fun projects all my friends have created for you to see (The list of participants is below).  And feel free to leave comments.  We are suckers for a kind word of encouragement   :)

Remember, if you live ANYWHERE in Canada you can order Stampin' Up! supplies from me.  Feel free to visit my online store HERE.  If you don't already have a demonstrator and you'd like a Holiday Catalogue, you can contact me and we'll get you set up.  I want to help you achieve the Christmas creating joy that will bring a smile to your face!

Have fun hopping along my friends and as always, my wish for you is that you enjoy the rest of your day!  Happy Stamping and God Bless,    Cynthia   <><
