The Snow Swirled Stamp Set creates an elegant holiday card in a flash! Don't you just love it when you can crete a WOW card that takes very little time? I do!
The Mocha Morning Specialty Designer Series Paper was the inspiration for this card. When I first created this card I stamped the tree image in gold ink and the snowflakes using Whisper White Craft ink, both images included in the Snow Swirled Stamp Set. I added 2 Gold brads in the lower left corner and 1 Basic Rhinestone at the top of the tree. It took me only a few minutes to create this version and I could see myself making all 100 of my holiday cards with this version.
I wanted to take it up a notch so I embossed the tree using Gold embossing powder. This little change would only add a few seconds to your cards.
This final version only took me a few more seconds but oh what a result! I replaced the 2 gold mini brads with 2 Basic Pearls, added 5 small rhinestones to the center of the snowflakes in the tree. Using one of our new products, Dazzling Diamonds, I added sparkle to the white snowflakes. I could have added a few small Basic Rhinestones to these snowflakes but I didn't want to distract from the bling of the tree. I just love the result of this tree! I think this will be my holiday card for this year. I could get all 100 cards out of 1 package of the Mocha Morning Specialty DSP by switching out the pattern.
