Just a couple of Christmas cards

Hi, just popping by to share a couple of Christmas cards I made using the Uniko Snowflake stencil I used here, that fit with a few current challenges. I loved the pinky purple version but these use a more traditional colour scheme. I needed a few rather quickly for my craft class ladies but the colour and lack of embellishments makes them suitable for blokes too!


I used the same technique, a base colour then using a finger dauber to add the darker blues to the pattern before die cutting the letters from Altenew's Bold Alphabet dies and a few silver IO die cut snowflakes that were leftover from another project. 


The negative panel was laid over some sparkly silver glitter paper on a mid blue base card and the letters were popped up on foam die cuts and added to a midnight blue base card. 


I even had another panel of stencilled snowflakes left to make another couple of cards!

  3. Two gorgeous cards using your beautiful snowflake stencil, Jules. So wonderful when you can get two cards from one main panel. I like both cards, but have to say that the dark blue with the snowflake stenciled noel steals my heart. :) Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Christmas! xx
