Winter has finally peeked his head out! The temperature has plummeted here and it actually snowed a little the other day! Wow! That happened FAST! In honor of the approaching Winter Weather, I created this Festive Flurry Circle Card. It's funny how your surroundings influence your Card Making. Be sure to stop back tomorrow for my BLACK FRIDAY SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT! (Hint: I'm VERY excited! It's something I've never offered before!!!) Okay…back to the card…The Circles Collection Framelits make creating this card a cinch. Just fold a piece of 5 1/2" x 11" Pool Party Cardstock in half at 5 1/2". Make sure to score the edge with your Bone Folder. Place the Scalloped Circle from the Circle Collection Framelits over the folded card – making certain to leave 3 scallops ABOVE the fold. Run it through the Big Shot. You will have the Scalloped Circle Card with the fold still attached. Run another piece of Pool Party Cardstock through the Big Shot using the same Scalloped Circle Framelit – but, this time, cut the whole circle. Adhere this over the card so that you have the full scalloped circle as your card front.
Using the largest Circle Framelit, cut a piece of Winter Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper for the front of your card and a piece of Whisper White Cardstock for the inside of your card. Cut 3 strips from 3 different patterns of Winter Frost Designer Series Paper – two of them at 1" x 3" and one at 1" x 3 1/2". Adhere the two smaller strips to the card front using SNAIL Adhesive Refill. Adhere the larger strip in the center using Stampin' Dimensionals. Run a piece of Whisper White Organdy Ribbon across the front of the Designer Series Paper Circle and adhere in the back using Glue Dots. Run a piece of 1/8" Silver Ribbon across the center of the Organdy Ribbon and secure in the back using Glue Dots. Adhere the Circle to the front of your card using SNAIL Adhesive Refill.
Stamp the smallest snowflake from the Festive Flurry Stamp Set in Bermuda Bay Ink onto Whisper White Cardstock and cut out using the matching Festive Flurry Framelits. Cut a piece of Silver Glimmer Paper in the next size snowflake Framelit. Adhere them to each other using Stampin' Dimensionals and then adhere the whole snowflake to the cardfront using Stampin' Dimensionals. Place a Frosted Finishes Embellishment in the center of the snowflakes.
Then, if you're like me, you just can't stop yourself from adding some Rhinestone Basic Jewels around the scallops of the card! It's downright Bling-A-Licious! If you'd like to make this card, you can have the supplies delivered right to your door. Find all of the supplies in my ONLINE STORE!
