Happy Friday everyone! This is my submission for LSC197. We had a spefic list to follow today: Use only Snowflakes on our card, Use some bling, Make it Monochromatic, and use One Single Word.
I used an old Stampin Up set called Snowflakes and stamped the largest snowflake in VersaMark and embossed in Silver. I used MS snowflakes punch and Cuttlebug Snowflakes die cut for my snowflakes. I punched some out of the Paper Co Silver I matted the card in, some out of a silver light cardboard I had saved from a jewelry box, and some from a scrap of vellum I had run through the bug with the swiss dot folder. My white ribbon has flocked snowflakes on it and was too thick to tie a bow with but I think it looks elegant. My sentiment is from Studio G. My bling is silver stars.
Thanks for looking! Have a wonderful weekend!!!

This is so pretty Grace. I love the bling in the middle of your flake. The colors are stunning. Great use of that stamp set. I so wish I had that set. I need to get a snowflake set. Wish I had gotten the one I wanted at EC. Can we go back..LOL
