Friendly Snow Flowers




Good Evening!  It's been a busy day in my craft room today.  So now I've got lots of posts to make.  First up is a card for the Winter White Challenge at Sugar Creek Hollow, another blog I stumbled upon this week and trying out for the first time.  I had the flower pot sitting in a stash of unused die cuts and thought it would be perfect.  Actually it was a leftover white ornament die from Christmas cards, but I cut off the bottom and top and made it a flower vase.  I used floral wire for the stems and painted them white.  The embossed background of the card was made using vellum paper that I embossed.  I cut a piece of lace DP paper to adhere to the top of the label die for more texture and shabbiness to compliment the embossed flower vase. 

SPIES:
Stamps:  Sentiment (Taylored Expressions).
Paper:  White cardstock.  DP - lace embossed (The Paper Company); Silk embossed on vase(The Paper Company); vellum.
Ink:  London Fog(Memento).  White acrylic paint (flowers stems).
Extras:  Ornament die (Sizzix); Label die (Sizzix).  Emboss folder(Sizzix); lace ribbon; pearl string; floral wire; snowflake buttons; heart punch; pearl gems; satin flower.

More to come shortly!  Come back and see!
