WT409 Vintage Snowflakes

Photo Details

Poster: Kathleen Lammie

For this week's Way to Use it challenges we were asked to use snowflakes. Instead of using the tried and true icy blue for the background, I decided to make a sort of Vintage Snowflake card.
The base card sections were made with the Elegant Edges cartridge. The largest snowflake with the flourish was made with the December 25th cartridge (along with some of the snowflakes) and the rest of the snowflakes were made with the Joys of the Seasons cartridge.
I sponged some chalk along the edges of the card front and the large snowflake and added stickles to the other snowflakes. I used dimensionals for all the snowflakes. Hope it doesn't look like "yellow snow"! LOL Just kidding! Thanks for taking a peek!

Fabulous format for your snowflake card, Kathleen. Love the LONG flourish with the snowflake accent. The warm neutrals go so beautifully with the white.

How pretty, Kathleen! I love your vintage snowflake w/ the lovely flourish. You make me think I really need to get my Cricut out. I don't use it near enough.
