Let it snow frame

Continuing with the snowy background that I have been creating lately for my cards, I created a framed one. I promise My next card will not be Christmas-y, lol. It feels great getting caught up on my Christmas card stash though. There are times when I want to just buy our cards, but then I look through my stamps and get inspired. Playing along with WMS's Christmas card challenges and Festive Fridays really help inspire me too. In fact, I am going to throw this on into the ring for the current FF challenge: Snow.

This time I decided to use the background as part of the framed scene I created. It was super easy to put together using the Country Landscape die by Memory Keepers. I simply die cut the image three times and cut them how I wanted. I then took a glitter pen and colored and outlined the parts I wanted to sparkle. A few punched, sparkled snowflakes and a sweet sentiment finished it off perfectly. A CAS card without the typical solid background.

Here is a close up of the sparkle.

Tea For Two

Here's my other card I made for my Your Memories Here post. I used PTI's Tea for Two and Damask Designs for this one. The frame is a Tattered Angels one that can be found at YMH and it was sprayed/colored with TA's glimmer mist: Dragonfly and Patina. I also coated the cardstock that I had embossed with the Damask design. I'm really liking this verigated look that the mists creates for me. Behind the frame I did lay down a layer of glue and covered it with glitter. Tomorrow I'll post my last two cards for the SCS Hope Challenges.
