In the hush of winter night, when the ice crystals form a mist around the full moon, I could swear that the shape of St. Nick and his reindeer is streaking across the sky. When I saw this very special metallic card stock from
The Paper Cut called
Lapis, I just knew I had to make a card for the midnight hour. The shimmer and sparkle from this gorgeous mat cardstock is hard to catch in the photo but it is stunning. I sponged my interpretation of ice crystals onto the Darcie embossing folder with a white Stampabilities pigment pad. I used gold Stickles for the stars and red for Rudolph's nose. Then added a fitting inside liner for the snowy weather. I'm sure you are looking for a unique finish for those Christmas cards~be sure to check out this fantastic site. It's a great place for pre-scored shape card blanks of all varieties, card/lay-out accessories and awesome cardstocks in many varieties.
I really can't take credit for this creation I've just made--I saw something similar at Pinterest and fell in love. So much so I went to the internet to purchase the Darcie folder that had the corner butterfly embossed scene. Luckily, I had some beautiful butterfly die cuts from some dear friends at Your Scrapbook Place 'cause they just Make the card POP! Then I put some pearls on them for accents. The inside has a complimentary floral print and a stamped sentiment. I always need Birthday cards and am so happy to have some new ideas for them-so many different possibilities! Thanks for looking and hope you come back real soon!
