This is for a couple of ..Color (CC564) & Sketch (SC574). Love these colors & looking through my stash, I found I have a whole bunch of backgrounds made with the blue/green comboÂ…really one of my favorite combos. So I took one I made on a lg tag & cut it down & added some of the sand color in the bg for the color challenge. For the sketch, the only thing different is mine is the mirror image & itÂ’s only that because the card front was upside down when I attached the vertical panel, so I had to reverse everything. Go ahead & laughÂ…like youÂ’ve never glued anything upside down, lol.
The med & lg snowflakes were stamped onto white, die cut & added to larger circle layers. For the sand bg, I stamped the snowflake bg all over using the sand ink then just a few flakes here & there w/ the white ink. The tag that I used for the vertical panel was done w/ a kind of modified Wrinkle Free Distress technique & I added just a bit of the Brilliance on top for a little shimmer.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups & the inside are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Like you, Julie, green and blue are my favourite colours, this card is just so beautiful with your stamped circles and coloured panel - I like the mirrored image of the sketch despite how it came about LOL!

Fantastic. Love all the backgrounds and you combined them so well. Love the circles with the snowflakes. Cute sentiment - snow funny. Love how you used all the colors. Very nicely done! TFS
