The strip at the top of the card was stamped with Houndtooth, in aqua onto white cardstock, and wrapped with a yellow bow. The sentiment, (from Winter Swirls) was stamped in dark chocolate and embellished with a row of rhinestones.
My inspiration for the snowflakes came from the Papertrey Ink home page here. Did you see the falling hearts on the right side of the page? What a perfect idea for falling snow! To create, all I did was lightly draw the lines in pencil, pierce the holes, erase the pencil line and then attach the rhinestone embellished snowflakes with foam adhesive.
Thanks for popping in today, hope you enjoyed your visit!
