I began by die cutting my snowflake, and stamping the greeting in the center in Silvery Shimmer ink. I clear heat embossed that, and then cut another snowflake out of masking paper. I placed the mask in the center of a white cardstock panel, and adhered it slightly to the left & down from there. I blended my 3 Distress inks on the panel, being sure to make a "soft" background. Then I took some of the "Bokeh Dots" stamps & stamped on the background in Unicorn white pigment ink. I removed the mask, and set that aside for a few hours to let the ink dry. When it had dried, I used Perfect Paper Adhesive to glue down my snowflake in the center. Where I had masked serves as a sort of "drop shadow" effect.

That is stunning! I love how it looks almost metallic. What a great idea to use the mask as a drop shadow. Brilliant!! Thanks for playing my challenge!
