CFS: Snowflake Splendor



http://cas-ualfridaysstamps.blogspot.com/

Hi Folks! We're in the middle of a huge release for CAS-ual Fridays Stamps ... it's the second of SIX days of fun new stamps and dies. Yesterday we covered fall, now settle in for five more days of Christmas and Hanukkah!!

The snowflake tree in this set is so cute! And why not make some in pink, right? These actually have two shades of pink and then Lady Bug Red on the bottom. I used the gold foil to extend the trees a little, and to make the center tree a little bigger than the other two. The center tree is also mounted on chipboard to give it some dimension.


The glitter paper is American Crafts POW and man is that a nice paper! It's got a very thin, plastic-ey backing which makes it nice for die cutting, and the glitter is part of the paper so it never rubs off. I got a great deal at a discount store and have a lot of it, so I need to start using it. I like how the color is a little non-traditional, yet goes with the pink and red. The inside is lined with a red and white dotted Pebbles paper.

   Thanks for looking, and come back over the rest of the week to see what else is new!! You're not going to want to miss checking out the other Ink Squad girls:

We're SO EXCITED to have Deepti, Marcie and Zoey join our team!!
