I started out digging through my DSP stash to find some paper with snowflakes on and came across the Ski Slope DSP, which is one of favorites - I think I still have 2 unopened packs of it! I then decided to go with Baja Breeze and Midnight Muse as my color scheme. Now to find some snowflake stamps. I decided to go non-SU for this card and was surprised to find I have no wood-mounted non-SU snowflake stamps. Clear stamps to the rescue! I found a set of Inkadinkado stamps, called Holiday Silhouettes, which hadn't seen ink that I used for my card.
Once I'd stamped my images, I cut them out using circle nesties and before removing the die, I lightly sponged Baja Breeze ink onto the image. The two little poinsettias were colored using my Cherry Cobbler marker and a blender pen.
Thanks for looking.
