Hi everyone! It’s Laura here and today I am back with a card I created with the new Floral Snowflake stencil and the Holiday Village stamp set. There is also a video tutorial for you at the end of this post, in case you are interested.

I started off the card by creating the background on some Strathmore Bristol Smooth cardstock. I die cut an A2 sized panel with the Darling Ribbon and Frames dies and did some ink blending with Distress Oxides in Blueprint Sketch and Shaded Lilac. I then used the Floral Snowflake stencil and the Faber Castell Glass Bead Glitter Gel to create two large snowflakes on opposite corners of the background.

I left the gel aside to dry and started working on my images. I used the Holiday Village stamp set and my ColourBlend pencils for my coloring. I the die cut them all with the coordinating dies.

For my sentiment I used stamps from the Holiday Winter stamp set – I created a banner from some white cardstock and stamped the greeting Holiday Wishes from Our Home to Yours.
Before adhering everything to my background, I added some extra detail and sparkle to it with Perfect Pearls. I diluted them with water and created some droplets with a paintbrush.

I raised the images and the sentiment banner over some foam tape and mounted everything on a top folding A2 card base.
