let it snow

Hey everybody! Well, another week is behind us and we’re headed into a glorious weekend! A little chilly but absolutely wonderful! I’m delighted to share a Keep It Simple DT inspiration project today created with the amazing Snow Day Collection! This collection was released back in mid October and the fun continues with the snow globe die cut into the front flap on this Winter-themed card!

The card base was cut from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar white cardstock along with layering panels from coordinating papers in the 6×9 Collection Pack. The snow globe and inside scene (from the Snow Globe stamps) were stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink, colored with a variety of markers, and cut with the coordinating Snow Globe Outline Dies. The snowy background inside the snow globe was stamped in Catherine Pooler Tranquil ink (using the Snow Background stamp), then again in Versamark, and heat embossed with Hero Arts Clear Embossing Powder.

I die cut the snow globe shape into the front flap and then assembled it behind the patterned paper layer. I added several snowflakes stamped with the Snow Day stamps and die cut with the coordinating Snow Day Outline Dies, along with a couple clear enamel dots on the bottom strip.

I embellished the inside panel with a leftover strip of the patterned paper used on the front. The sentiment was stamped using the Snow Day Stamps and cut with the coordinating Snow Day Outline Dies, and then the panel was layered on a red paper from the 12×12 Collection Pack.

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We have 10 feline rescues. I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty lovins! ;)
