Hello,
I am playing along November's Challenge on A Blog Named Hero, Holiday Theme.
Also linking up to Hero Arts' Holiday Cards Making Challenge.
Here's my card:
For this card, I wanted to have subtle snowflake background and don't want to use the torn edge for the ground. So I stamped with white pigment ink all over, added extra snowflakes at the bottom and only heat emboss the bottom of the card. And instead of the glittery stickles, I used Sprinkle Sugar; this gives me some texture without too much shine so the focal elements (greeting bubble and moose) take the center stage.
Did you notice a little booboo on my card? I originally wanted to heat emboss a sentiment at the bottom of the card, but I under estimated how long it took the pigment ink to dry (even after I zapped it with my heatgun). So the embossing powder stuck to everything else so the sentiment is hiding among the small snowflakes! LOL But I think the speech bubble turned out to be a better solution. What do you think? :)
