While shades of red and green are my go to colors for Christmas, Night of Navy and Whisper White with a bit of Silver Foil are my favorite combination when it comes to snow flake cards. I used the limited edition Snow is Glistening stamp set and the coordinating Snowfall Thinlits for this stunning card.
Color Combo
I started with a 4-1/4″ x 11″ piece of Night of Navy folded in half. Next I added a 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Whisper White to the front as well as the inside of the card. The Swirls & Curls Embossing Folder on the 3-7/8″ x 5-1/8″ layer of Night of Navy provided the texture I was looking for. Next I stamped the snowflakes in Whisper White Craft Ink on the 2″ x 4″ Night of Navy which I then matted with 2-1/8″ x 4-1/8″ Whisper White. I love the crisp classic look of the Navy and White. The Navy Gingham Ribbon tied in a bow adds a soft visual to the card.
Finally, the extra special part of the card…the double layered very detailed snow flake. I cut the first layer using the Snowfall Thinlits with the Whisper White Velvet Paper which was part of the Snowflake Showplace Exclusive Products (and is now sold out). You could easily substitute Whisper White, Shimmer White or the Sparkle Glimmer Paper for the Velvet Paper. I used Silver Foil Sheets to die cut the second layer and attached these to the card with a Stampin’ Dimensional under the center of each snowflake to give it added depth. The sentiment, also from the Snow is Glistening stamp set was stamped in Night of Navy and die cut with the Stitched Shapes Framelits and added to the center of the snowflake.
Don’t forget, the Snow is Glistening stamp set and the Snowfall Thinlits are only available until November 30th or earlier if the supply is depleted like it was with the Velvet Paper. Don’t miss out- order these and all the supplies for this card by clicking on the photos below.
Can the snowflake stamps still be purchased.?
Thanks

No, I’m sorry Judy, that stamp set has been retired.
