Day 24 - "V"

I've layered up pretty little vellum snowflakes to create the embellishments for my card. I used a decorative corner punch to create the snowflakes and then attached them with glue, which of course left little marks in the centre of each one... but that's nothing a sparkly rhinestone won't cover, while also adding a fabulous twinkle to the night sky.


YOUR TURN: Create a card using the letter "V" as your prompt.

This is adorable. I love how you put the diamonds on the vellum snowflakes. Great use of the vellum. Wish I would have thought of it, lol. Great job, I love it.

Very nice Beccy. Nice trick with covering the glue on vellum - must remember that one.

Love this snowman and the entire package. Definitely one I'll be adding to my collection. Your shading just makes him pop against the aqua green background. Love the bling in the snowflakes too!

Oh I love the sweet expression on the snowy face. The vellum snowflakes are so pretty and delicate. They are the perfect reason/excuse to use twinkle to cover the glue (not that I ever think you need a reason to use a bit of twinkle on a Christmas card though LOL)

Awwww how sweet the snowflakes with vellum and your sweet snowman image a perfect match.
Well done Beccy.

Margreet said...

What a great idea to use vellum snowflakes with of course a sparkly rhinestone to cover the glue. Your fab coloured snowman is also loving them too. Just look at his glorified face!! Love the way you used the die with the sentiment.
