Frosty Jade - Let It Snow:

Good Morning Everyone

Another lovely morning with sunshine forecast, although I will only see it through my windows as I will be busy crafting.

Today's Card is created using one of my favourite colours from Phill's Frosty Collection, I hope you like it.

1st layer white card stock cut to 7.75 sq.  I then used Frosty Jade Colour Cloud around the edges and attached flat to the main card.

2nd layer
White card stock cut to 7,5 sq.and then stamped using the Corner Stamps and Jade Colour Cloud Ink.
I then embossed this and attached flat to the card.



Next I used the Frame Stamp and again Jade Colour Cloud Ink to stamp the design, then using my

craft knife I cut out the centre,Using Cosmic Shimmer Glue and Glacier Ice Glitter Jewels I decorated the edge before attaching to the card using a double layer of pads to give dimension.
I then cut out a piece of white card to fit into the aperture, stamped this with a Sentiment again using Colour Cloud, then attached flat to the centre.





Finishing Touches

I cut out 4 Holly Spray and used Glacier Ice on the leaves before attaching to the card, then I used Frosty Jade on the holly berries.

Using the 3 smallest dies from the Poinsettias I cut these out, shaped and glued together then added Glacier Ice before adding to the card.
Finishing off with Frosty Jade Twinkles in the centres.

Christmas Greetings in my new Frosty Jade!

Good Morning Everyone

It's been such a busy week this week, but I really wanted to show you these cards that I made over the last weekend, using my 6 new Frosty Cosmic Shimmer Colour Collections!
(these will be available on my website early next week)

The new colours are...
Frosty Blossom, Frosty Sky, Frosty Jade, Frosty Heather, Frosty Aqua and Frosty Mink :-)

I had such fun making these cards,.. I love being able to do the same card in all 6 colour ways,.. how do I choose a favourite? I can't! I love them all! :-)

I'm going to show you one each day, for the next 6 days :-)

You may remember me showing you little teaser photos on my Facebook and Twitter pages as I was creating these cards,.. the bows, the border sentiments etc,.  :-)

OK,.. It will take me ages to tell you how I made this card and, to be honest, I have to get ready to go to my shop soon for a workshop this afternoon, so I'll do that for you over the weekend and link it back to this post :-)

I can tell you that all the stamps I've used are on my website and they are from my 2015 Christmas Holly Collection..

I can also tell you that I have now, finally!, got my brand new 2015 Frosty Christmas Holly 8x8 Paper Pad and Insert Pads in stock and on my website!!

These, as you'd expect from me, are designed to perfectly co-ordinate with the complete range of Christmas Holly Stamps and the 6 new Frosty Cosmic Shimmer Colours :-)

Here's a little taster,.. :-)

The first of the 6 cards in --- Frosty Jade!
