HAI Let it Snow

 Hi there and welcome back to my blog! I'm back from Scotland after a quick week's visit and am now rather sick with some kind of virus, not anything they tested me for, but am on antibiotics and am left with a rather raspy chest cough. Getting better each day though, so that's good! Took a walk around the yard and so much has happened in a week and a half! The crocuses and daffodils are a welcoming sight!

My card today is for the Holly and Ivy Challenge, where as always it is Anything Goes!

 
I had a negative die cut of a snowflake that I had used in a previous card lying on the desk and I started with that. I applied double stick tape to the back of it and layered it on to a piece of white cardstock.


I applied Cloud Nine microfine glitter to the front of it.


This panel was then layered on to a square piece of designer paper and this was layered to a white card base.

The Let it Snow sentiment was die cut after layering a piece of double sided tape over the top of a piece of white cardstock.


The sentiment was glue across the base of the card.


When the glue was dry, I peeled off the protective cover of the tape and added three microfine glitters, white, teal and navy to the sentiment. 


The three colors showed up nicely against the different backgrounds.


A navy ribbon and a thread bow was tied around the spine of the card to finish it up. 


I hope I've inspired you to join in on the Challenge this week! 

Till next time,

Shona
