Santa flying on white

This was something of a challenge as I haven’t made a completely white card before. I cut a circle from the centre of the card front and embossed a piece of card to place behind this. I glittered my chosen die cuts and placed them on the card. I stamped the sentiment with grey ink and embossed it, cut around the words and glittered around the edges. I tried stamping with Versa mark ink and embossing in white, but it didn’t look right – so went for the grey. Then I placed small gems on several of the die cut shapes. In spite of not being sure about it initially, I really enjoyed making this card – but getting a good picture was not at all easy!!

What I used –

Dies – Frosty Border, Snowflake Corner and Cosmic Stars all by Memory Box. Santa by Impression Obsession. Horizon Pine Trees by Marianne Design.

Cuttlebug embossing folder – Swiss Dots Punched snowflakes

Sentiment from LOTV Gems from my stash

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges –

Excellent job! What a fantastic card! Great use of dies and glitter to create a brilliant and elegant card, really pleased you joined us at MAWTT this week as it was a tough challenge…we all thought that too! And you are so right, the photography was the worst bit! Jx

An amazing card that is so effective even though it is all white . The textures are all so different and stand out so well . The sentiment is a nice finishing touch jenny
