More snowfakes and sparkle!

I used Craft Artist software to match the colours in the inspiration photo for the colour create challenge and then printed the papers.

I used a LOTV die cut and sentiment but recoloured to get a better match for the colours I wanted.

I used my snowflake punch again to cut snowflakes in shiny grey and glittery lilac paper. I then curled them slightly, layered them at an angle and stuck a lilac gem in the middle.

I would like to enter the following challenges.
Clour Create challenge- lilac, grey and white with optional snowflakes.
Flutter By Wednesday Challenge open but including angel, butterfly or fairy
Bah Humbug Christmas- glitter and glitz

Another Christmas card using a beautiful LOTV die cut with cute penguins holding their Let It Snow banner (can’t afford to get many stamps so these die cuts are great!) and LOTV Let It Snow sentiment stamped in red distress ink. I used sticky pearls for snowflakes and highlighted the snow and snowflakes on the sentiment with white stickles.

I’ve made my first snowflake embellishments using a snowflake punch on some shiny and frosted cards together. I took some left over flower pins from my wedding (from Michael Dark) and cut off the heads to fix to the middle of the snowflakes using glossy accents.
I also used left overorganza ribbon from the wedding.

This is my card for Breast Cancer Awareness month.
I’ve been trying to recycle packaging when cardmaking where possible. I had a phase eight bag to recycle and I realised the P was actually like the breast cancer awareness ribbon. The bag also has pink and black polka dot card and black card that i used as the basis for making the tag. Everything else is from stash.

I realised a while ago that some of the packaging I was about to recycle would be perfect to use for card making. I decided that the matching bag with ribbon and tissue paper had great potential for a male card so I’ve put this together mainly using the packaging.
I’d like to enter it for CES challenge which is recycle and also for Birthday Sundaes button challenge.

Forever Friends stamp coloured with Promarkers.
Ribbons, tissue paper and papers from packaging.
Buttons, stars, gems and stickers from stash.
