Good morning everyone, today I'm sharing my 4th project for Creative Expressions using the "Let It Snow Stamp Set" & a little "how to put it together"....
I started out by covering some cardstock with Distress Inks (Antique Linen)
then used Distress Inks (Walnut Stain) to darken the edges of the card
"Spritz & Flick" with water then dry with heat gun
Stamp quote "Let It Snow" for the background with Versamark Ink
Cover with clear embossing powder
Stamp tree image with Archival Ink (Jet Black) over the embossed background (you can see where the ink has resisted allowing the wording to come through)
Adhere Silky Crush Ribbon (UK02 Champagne) loosely to create a gift wrapped appearance using Cosmic Shimmer Glue
Stamp Sleigh image onto another piece of cardstock coloured as before
Stamp Happy Christmas around the edges using Archival Ink (Jet Black) then adhere to card
Finally stamp Reindeer image onto cardstock, trim and adhere to card using 3d Foam Pads
For those of you still with me lol, I hope you have enjoyed your visit. Thanks for taking the time to stop by and leave a comment.
Until next time .... stay inky! x

The black stamping on the antique linen background looks wonderful Gillian. I love your card and the way the Let it snow shows though the trees. I like the ribbon too. Looks like a present waiting to be opened. Michelle x
