I have some really pretty foil card I thought would go well with this large snowflake from SU,
(Snowy Delights). Plus I really wanted to join the Colour Hues challenge #122 (teal + silver)
It’s proved very difficult to photograph though!
Below it looked like a dark blue,
so I stepped out into the sunshine, which shows more of a true colour.
This one has sparkly white die cuts for Jingle Belles rock challenge (banner) but my attempt at
editing the brightness turned the white a bit blue, and still didn’t show the true colour 🙄
I’ve used this layout a lot. Just cut the rectangle in two diagonally, to make two cards.
I also embossed white card the same size. Die cut the snowflake and sentiment for four quick cards.
I’m also entering Try it on Tuesday (snowflakes)
Time out challenge #302 (emboss, white, sparkle)
Thanks for taking the time to visit, and I really appreciate your comments
Take care and see you soon

Your card is just beautiful, Lesley! It is crazy how different the card photo looks depending on the light. That is the hardest part of this hobby, taking the pics! You thankfully managed to capture the true colors perfectly for us. Thanks for playing at Color Hues, we really appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteSmashing snowflake cards and a super idea for a bit of batch making. LOVE teal and it pairs brilliantly with white or silver. Awesome 🥰
ReplyDeleteA great layout and a lovely way to highlight some sparkly paper. The large snowflake is impressive and this is indeed a good way of producing a 'twofer'.
ReplyDeleteThis is so elegant, Lesley! Foil is so hard to photograph, but so gorgeous with the sparkly snowflake. I feel a CASE coming on! Thanks so much for inspiring us at Color Hues!
ReplyDeleteI understand about the color looking different in the lighting. That foil is beautiful (in either) light and I love the angle design. The snowflake just sparkles. Elegant card for sure.
ReplyDeleteooo ... that bold snowflake is so dramatic ... love it ... so glad you joined our Banner Holiday at Jingle Belles.
ReplyDeletePhotographing foil is always finicky. (Say that three times fast. LOL!) I love the beautiful design with the sparkles. Thanks so much for playing with us at Color Hues!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards and designs, your snowflakes look fantastic. Thank you for linking with us at Try it on Tuesdays.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, wow, WOW! I love the way you were inspired by the colors, snow and glitter, then cleverly designed cards that are nearly "two-fers" and sooooo clever and vibrant! So happy you could join our Jingle Belles Blog Banner Inspiration fun this fortnight! ♥
ReplyDeleteThe gorgeous rich colours on your first card makes it a real stand out! Love it! Thanks so much for sharing with us at Time Out Challenges!
ReplyDeleteThese snowflakes are the stars of your cards, and I like the sparkle. Thanks for sharing these with us at Try It On Tuesday. hugs-Erika
