Snow for Dies R Us


Time for snow!

And for the new Dies R Us Challenge!


Our Challenge Blog

Not too long ago, I was in our local craft store at the mall, and found this beautiful paper from Kaisercraft called Christmas Jewel Collection. The purples and silvers are just stunning! I bought  a few sheets of each, thinking it would be perfect for this snow challenge.

 I love the silver snowflakes in the background:



I created a frame with a rectangle die, adhered it onto a piece of the designer paper, and added my fancy deer with a bow from Cheery Lynn in the center.



For this one, I added the sentiment from Sue Wilson, and the snowflakes from Cheery Lynn.




The last card of the set has a stitched snowflake from Lawn Fawn with a bow from Cheery Lynn. Each card is popped up with a piece of foam cut the size of the frame for added dimension.
I added a pearl in the center of each card.

Here's a list of the dies I used:
Cheery Lynn Snowflake  (I used #2)



Head on over to the Dies R Us Challenge blog and play along with our Snow challenge, we would love to see your cards in the gallery!
