Sweet By Three

Hello everyone,

Today's post is another snowflake Christmas card.


The printed paper is of unknown origin layered on Paper Accents Glossy Mirror Silver and a pale lavender of unknown origin.  The sentiment is Inkadinkado Winter Trails stamped in Altenew Deep Iris on a white Bazzill and heat embossed with Close To My Heart Silver Pearl embossing powder.  The snowflake embellishments are punched from more Paper Accents Glossy Mirror Silver and are highlighted with Star Dust Stickles.

The background paper has just a hint of lavender which I found particularly appealing and somewhat unexpected.  The larger snowflakes on the printed paper can be challenging as they're not a great scale for small cards.  Using this large but intricate sentiment which is balanced by the two silver snowflakes (the 'threes' design principle) is what really makes this card work as I'd hoped.

I hope you enjoy this card and come back to SPI again soon.
