Snowflakes and Candy Canes!

I don't know if I have ever had so much fun coming up with new Christmas cards. There are just so many wonderful supplies available and I want to use them all!

For the card above, I just had to make use of these great stamps by Unity Stamp Co. The distress dot background stamp and the greeting stamp, "Jesus is the reason for the season".

The brackets are part of the greeting stamp. I stamped the greeting with black ink on a piece of plain white cardstock and then stamped it again on an extra piece of paper with red ink and cut out just the brackets. They were added to the greeting on the front of the card with foam tape for added dimension.

Before adding my extra brackets, I masked the greeting that I had stamped on my card front and stamped the distress dot background over that. This stamp was inked with red and green ink. I then sprayed some Key Lime Pie Glimmer Mist over this piece.

The snowflakes are punches. I punched them out of white cardstock. They were then sprayed with Glimmer Mist spray to add the red color and I brushed them with Twinkle Glitter to add some sparkle.

Thanks for visiting, Linda (lbpost)
