I hope everyone is enjoying this holiday season.
I am always running around like a chicken with my head cut off this time of year...but now that I work full time, I am really behind. I have given it to the fact that I just can't do all that I normally did. I cut my baking WAY down and also can't make everyone I know a handmade card. I don't even have time this year to make handmade gifts like I normally do. Makes me sad, but I just don't have enough hours in the day.
I did get this new plate, Snowy Woods, from Artistic Outpost yesterday in the mail and just HAD to make something with it. I actually made two cards and will share the other one later.
This one isn't one of my favorite cards. It didn't turn out like I envisioned. I will try this again later when I have more time, I guess.
I stamped the snowflakes randomly on glossy cardstock (available at Artistic Outpost) with resist ink. Then I rubbed Adirondack Denim ink over the entire thing to make the snowflakes appear. Then I stamped over them with silver ink to add some dimension. Tied a bow along the one side with pretty snowflake ribbon.
Finally I stamped the sentiment with Denim ink and added it with dimensional tape. I have to say that the sentiments on this sheet are STUNNING. They stamp so crisp and clean.
Thanks so much for stopping by!! I hope you have a wonderful rest of your week and remember....only 9 more days til Christmas!! YIKES!

I don't know what your vision was, but this is gorgeous! Love the dark blue and silver.
Are you kidding me? If this didn't fulfill your vision, then you have high visions. lol!! I LOVE this card Robin! The bow and colors of this are simply stunning, it really popped out in my blog reader which is why I finally made it over here to say hello. The denim and silvers are so classy. Happy Thursday Robin! And if it makes you feel any better, I am wayyy behind as well, but 'tis the season. It will be merry regardless if we're super crafters or not. :D
