Snowflakes!

Quick post tonight...Brett had surgery today and didn't have the quick post-op recovery he was hoping for. They thought he would get to come home this afternoon but they ended up keeping him overnight. He was NOT too happy about that!  Stubborn man. ;)

It's time for a new challenge at Addicted to CAS and it's one of my favorite things to stamp, but not one of my favorite real-life things, that's for sure! lol
For  my first card, I used the color challenge at Fab Friday
.
I thought these were such festive colors for a snowflake card!
 I masked off my card and then sponged it with Coastal Cabana. I then stamped my snowflakes and sentiment, then added some silver stretchy card for a little extra touch. My second card I did some faux frames.

For this card, I placed my Soft Sky cardstock on my magnetic plate and then added my frames on top of it. I then sponged Marina Mist inside and outside of the frames to create the look of the triple frame. I then stamped the sentiment in Marina Mist, the snowflakes in Silver Encore Ink and added some Silver Dazzling Details to bling it up.
