It seems very strange making a Christmas card in the heat we have at the moment. I don't do the cold but I don't do heat well either. For my card I have used the Sweet Pea Stamps image by Joanne Schempp called "Ice Ice Baby". It is available as a digital image and a rubber stamp.
For my card I have used the digital image and coloured in with tones of blue with my Promarkers and Flexmarkers. I have highlighted areas with Stickles glitter glue. I have stamped a backing paper with three freebie snowflake stamps I have got and Tim Holtz's Tumbled Glass, Faded Jeans and Chipped Sapphire distress ink pads. The DCWV snowflake backing paper I have torn. I have cut around the image and laid on top of a Marianne Designs die-cut which I have put Imaginations Crafts Diamond Sparkle onto. I have finished the card off with a stamped and die-cut sentiment, seam binding ribbon bow, button, gems, twine and pearls.
