This is my card for the Splitcoaststampers September Christmas Fan Club challenge of silver - plus the ABC Challenge of Unlimited (Anything Goes) and the Papertake Weekly Challenge of Anything Goes (plus the option of making a Christmas card/project).
I went for very clean and simple as you can see. I absolutely LOVE the Memory Box Deer Trio die - it's so pretty don't you think? I diecut the deer from silver glitter cardstock and left a large enough piece of the glitter cardstock so I had enough room on it to add my sentiment. The ground underneath the deer is a little wavy in case you are thinking I cut it unevenly. I used Ranger wonder tape to attach the glitter cardstock to my white cardstock as I find that normal doublesided tape doesn't adhere very well to the glitter cardstock. The wonder tape is very sticky and works really well.
I used my embossing buddy to wipe across the sentiment panel then stamped the sentiment with Versamark Watermark ink and heat-set it using silver embossing powder. I used my Perfect Layers Tools to cut a 1/16" border around the sentiment panel.
The left-hand side snowflake is the smallest snowflake die from the Snowflake Trio die set by My Favorite Things and the one on the right is a Cuttlebug die. I added a silver rhinestone to the centres then popped the snowflakes up on dimensionals.
Lastly, I corner-punched the bottom of the card then tied on some silver cord. I added Fray Stop to the cut ends to stop them from fraying.
Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see you again very soon.
Jocelyn
