Well, it is late here, but I'm posting this earlier than I was planning. That's what I was trying to say! :) I was planning on this being my Wednesday post, but I will be home most of the morning tomorrow so I will be sure to make some time to make some more cards. :) Blogger is not being my friend tonight so I am going to keep this short before it shuts me down AGAIN!
I am entering this card in challenges at Black Tie Fridays, Hand-Stamped Sentiments and Dynamic Duos.
When I look at these challenges, they don't seem to go together much at all! Funny how my card turned out and fits all of them though. :)
The masking that I did is reverse masking. I die cut the snowflakes and used the negative part for the mask. I then spritzed some of my homemade shimmer spritz in Cherry Cobbler and and Crumb Cake to get the darker snowflakes you see in the background. I layered Sahara Sand snowflakes over it for a 3D effect. For the button, I spritzed it with the Cherry Cobbler spritz, then covered it with Crystal Effects to keep the color from rubbing off. I then filled it with rhinestones and added more Crystal Effects to keep them in place. I wish you could see it, but I also did reverse masking on the tag with just the Crumb Cake. It is very subtle and looks so much better in person!
I hate to do this but Blogger is not working for me tonight, so I will have to come back and post my supply list tomorrow! Sorry!
I always love your cards! I love that u explain what you did. I need to be better about that :)
