Snowflake Cards with Rinea Foiled Papers

Hi everyone, I'm on the Rinea blog today with a set of snowflake cards. 

Rinea foiled papers are perfect for card making and the more intricate the die, you can really see how easily Rinea foiled papers die cut.

Using a Snowflake background die from PoppyStamps, I die cut both Arctic Starstruck Foiled Paper and Cobalt Starstruck Foiled Paper.  The foils die cut this intricate die beautifully and easily.

The Cobalt panel was matted with Arctic/Gold Glossy Foiled Paper.  The phrase, from Lavinia stamps, was also matted with Cobalt before being placed on the card.

For a tone on tone effect, I matted the die cut panel with Arctic/Gold Glossy Foiled Paper.

The same phrase was used but I decided not to mat it.  I wanted a pure white effect (other than the stamped phrase!).

Nuvo Drops were added randomly to the snowflakes to create a 3 dimensional effect.

Thanks for stopping by.

Snowflake Cards

Hi everyone, I'm on the Rubber Buggy blog using lots of products available in the store.

It may still be the middle of summer, but there is no better way to cool off than by creating winter themed cards.

I used Maja Designs Vintage Summer Basics 1916 to create both cards, die cutting the papers with PoppyStamps Craft Die - Snowflake Lattice Frame.  As this paper is double sided, I created two cards using both sides of the paper.

Use the Spellbinders Tool 'n One to remove the left over die cut pieces that remained in the die.

Mat the die cut panels with the same paper, then wrap each  panel with May Arts Sheer Light Blue Stitched ribbon.  This gives the cards a wintry feel.

The Maja paper gives each card a wintry feel.

Add the die cut panels to 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" cards created from Bazzill Marshmallow cardstock and Bazzill Icy Mint cardstock.  Use Nuvo Crystal Drops to create pearls in each of the snowflakes.  Allow to dry completely.

Die cut Tutti Designs Oval Dies from the same paper and place atop the cards with Scrapbook Adhesives 3D Foam  for dimension.  Stamp and die cut the bench and lamp post using Lawn Fawn Winter in the Park stamps and dies and Lawn Fawn Soot Dye Ink.   Place them atop the oval and add to the card with foam adhesives.

Die cut  Bazzill Marshmallow cardstock with the Lawn Fawn Let It Snow Line  Border Die.  As the die cut phrase is flexible, you can customize the die cut for your projects.   I wanted to shape them in the form of an arch on my cards.

Finally add Yellow Ice Stickles to the lanterns.
