This is one of the recent scrapbooking club layouts that we did – featuring that glittery snowflake I showed you my experiment on earlier. I am still working on my photo skills, this one is skewed funny, but I couldn't seem to fix it with photoshop. (Not a photoshop issue, more like a user issue!! lol). Anyway….we used the Ski Slope Designer Series Paper – love this particular pattern in baja breeze. The letters are the outline alphabet, stamped in baja breeze.
On this particular paper, we were able to use three of the snowflakes like photo corners. Using the craft knife, we trimmed around a few of the portions of the snowflake and a 4.25" x 6.25" cardstock piece fit in perfectly. We also jazzed it up a bit by adding Dazzling Diamonds glitter with some Two Way Glue. Those who have attended classes or workshops with me will know I'm not big into fussy cutting, but sometimes it's worth the effort!!
A closer shot of the chipboard snowflake – coated with whisper white craft ink, then heat embossed with heat and stick powder and coated with more Dazzling Diamonds glitter. This photo still doesn't do it justice…
It was a very glittery evening!

Kim is responsible for this great swap card! I love the mini library clip and the staples….goes with the very clean lines of the card. She's used the hostess stamp set Deer Friends, coloured the image with stampin' write markers and added a bit of crystal effects for extra dimension plus a touch of glitter for glitz. The sentiment "sparkle" comes from the Warm Words set, not featured in the current catalogue, but still available on the dormant list. The designer series paper is Ski Slope, from the current Holiday Mini Catalogue. Thanks, Kim!
Happy Thanksgiving to my American friends & blog followers!
Also a reminder that email newsletter subscribers should receive my 9th week of Christmas ideas today…please contact me if you don't find it in your inbox by the end of the day!
