The first card is a stepped up version of a card we made at card group this month. To step it up, I've glittered the snowflake circle, added iridescent blue Swarovski crystals to the punched snowflakes, added a snowflake charm to the ribbon and rounded all the corners.
This second card was inspired by a stunningly gorgeous card Joanne made at a class at the Glitter Pot. I saw the card when I was at her house for the Stampers Ten Make & Take evening, absolutely loved it and decided to CASE it.
The border on the left is made with 2 sizes of punched snowflakes. I've glued the larger ones flat to the card but the smaller ones are popped up with 3d foam pads. Circle and Labels Three Nesties were used for the image and mats. I've added silver Dew Drops to the Labels Three shape. The sentiment was stamped in Brilliance Moonlight White ink - next time I plan to heat emboss with white embossing powder to make the sentiment pop more. The sparkly snowflakes circle is popped up with 3d foam tape.
