Snow Very Lovely!

The cards this fortnight were SNOW wonderful, it was especially difficult to only choose three; so we highly recommend you take a good scroll through all the entries, so as not to miss any of the fabulous inspiration! Meanwhile, here are three cards that caught our eye:

Crystal O. Minkler of Tawny Owl Paperie

...built this charming snowy scene for her adorable penguin pals to frolic in; and of course her amazing coloring skills take the whole thing to the next level!

Pauline C of Passion for Papercrafting

...created an elegant, ethereal winter landscape so magical, it's made us start longing for a bit of cold weather!

Denise of the Crafty Den

...made snowflakes (and frosty bling!) the star of the show on this super-textural CAS card that could not possibly be any cooler!

♥♥♥

Many thanks to all who played along, we loved seeing every single card. We'll be back at midnight with a brand new prompt so we hope you still have some LEFTOVER energy to make more cards! ;)

SNOW Place like Home for the Holidays

We're still creating with SNOW this week at Jingle Belles ... It might be snowmen, snowflakes or just a snowy landscape, but include some snow on your cards.

Here's how we got SNOW-y this week:

Lauren's Other Card

Lauren says, "The other night I had fun ink-blending various shades of blue Ranger Distress Oxides over several panels of white-embossed snowflake backgrounds. But then I couldn't decide which one I liked the best... so I popped a hole into one and layered it over the other... problem solved! The snowman and sentiment are from Simon Hurley's North Pole Sentiments die set by Spellbinders; the Snowflake Brads and Enamel Hearts are from Eyelet Outlet."

Stephanie's Other Card

Stephanie says, "I started with a rainbow GelliArts print and the Lawn Fawn Snowflakes Stencil for the Lawn Fawnatics rainbows! Challenge.  I used silver glitter paste through the stencil and let it dry before diecutting with the Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangle Die Cut.  Next I cut the Lawn Fawn Giant Be Merry from Silver Glitter cardstock & black cardstock for a drop shadow.  I finished by cutting the Candy Cane from the Lawn Fawn Build-a-Drink Mug Add-on (reversing it for the second one) using a scrap of red GelliArts printed paper and white cardstock.  All dies were attached using foam tape for dimension."

Link your fabulous snow-centric masterpieces on the original post (right below this one) by next Wednesday evening, November 5th! ♥

Dashing through the SNOW

For our next Jingle Belles prompt, we are asking you create projects that celebrate the white fluffy flakes of snow … it might be snowmen, snowflakes or just snowfall, but include some snow on your cards.

Here's how we got SNOW-y this week:

Stephanie's Card

Stephanie says, "I love the new Kristina Werner Snowflake Season Border Die that I cut from a paper sample of brushed silver.  I used the bits that were left to cut out some of the smaller snowflake dies in the set and scattered them around my distressed GelliArts print made using Paper Artsy Forget Me Not Chalk Acrylic paint.  I die cut the Kristina Werner Calm & Bright dies from vellum and a slightly darker  purple cardstock, but the busyness of the snowflakes through the vellum didn't work, so I tried a silver glitter background that was too much.  I ended-up layering both backgrounds together, which was just right.  I attached it with foam tape and finished with a scattering of AlteNew Mother of Pearl Gem Sparkles.  The entire piece was attached to a metallic silver card base."

Lauren's Card

Lauren says, "I serendipitously discovered this blue and purple gelprint (made ages ago, using an ancient Darice snowy embossing folder to left some of the paint off the plate) and added torn sheet music, purple Core'dinations cardstock and snowy washi; before layering on ALL the flakes from my Tim Holtz/Sizzix Stacked Snowflakes die in sparkly white plus various blues and purples."
