Festive Flurries Scrapbooking


 Well here on the Canadian prairies, Mother Nature has already brought the cold temperatures and we have had a few dumps of snow!  I am sure it will be a White Christmas this year!  I have some snow pictures (that I still need to print-please tell me I am not the only one who is horrible at getting digital pics printed!) that I can't wait to scrap! 
 
 
I created this page for my November scrap club and I can't wait to get some black and white photos on them!  I used the Festive Flurries snowflakes as well as the Endless Wishes polymer set to stamp and emboss snowflakes around this page.  I added some rhinestones as well as the brad bases (for the candy dots) and added a larger rhinestone into it to hold the layered snowflakes together.  I used the Hearts a Flutter framelits for the "joy" words (that were stamped with the Noteable alphabet set).
 
 
The paper I used was the Smoky Slate textured cardstock and the designer paper is the Winter Frost Paper stack.   I added some frosted finishes embellishments for a little extra sparkle too.  They are just stunning! 
 
 
Thanks for stopping by today!

Vintage Santa

I just love working with this image of Santa! 
 
 
 Today's card has more of a vintage feel than the one I posted the other day (you can see it
here.)  I stamped Santa with Soft Suede ink on vanilla cardstock.  I sponged around him with crumb cake ink to "age" the paper.  I mounted it on a rectangular cherry cobbler mat to give the feel of the (very trendy) Polaroid look.  I also sponged the edges of the mat. 
 
I love the "Believe" sentiment from the Snowflake Soiree set-it just fits so well with the magic of the season and with Santa himself!  I added some burlap ribbon and a snowflake from the Festive Flurries set (and cut it with the Festive Flurries Framelits).  I finished it off with a pearl and some dazzling diamonds on the fur of Santa's coat.  It was a simple card to create and was pleased with how it turned out.  I hope you like him!
