Thank you so much for joining me for this Whimsical Non-Traditional Distress Spray Snowflake Christmas Card, Let's jump right in.
I started with creating the background, I used watercolour cardstock and five distress sprays in Winterberry, Snow Flurries, Salvaged Patina in both Oxide and Spray Stain and Spun Sugar Oxide Spray. I worked between the five colours and some clean clear water until I had a blend of colours I liked. Once the background panel was dry I used a snowflake stencil and Iridescent Glitz glitter gel to add some really sparkly details to the background.
I then trimmed down a Champagne glitter matte to be about 1/8th of an inch smaller than the A2 base and trimmed the background panel to be about 1/8th of an inch smaller than the matte. I ran my glitter matte through my Gemini with some Stitched Snowflakes dies to add as a focal on my card front.
For the sentiment I cut out two layers of vellum and adhered them together with a Xyron sticker maker, I white heat embossed a Christmas sentiment on the vellum and ran it through the Xyron again so I could adher it to my background panel. All that's left is to adhere the layers and add some lovely white pearls to finish up my first Christmas card of this year. I think it turned out pretty whimsical and fun!!
