It's time for a new sketch from Freshly Made Sketches! This week our hostess is our resident color-mix-master Amy O'Neill. I stumbled upon some snowflake challenges as I perused blogland for ideas for my card so that inspired my take on this fabulous sketch.
I know I sound like a broken record but this is way more sparkly in real life than it appears in this photo! The snowflakes were both cut with some glimmer paper and I wove a bit of shiny red cross-stitch floss behind the silver one for a little interest.
The challenge at CAS-ual Fridays is for glitter and snowflakes - check - while Creative With Stamps is looking for Christmas stamps - easy peasy - and lo and behold The Paper Players want snowflakes too - double check! 🙌
My Freshly Made Sketches teammates have made some beautiful cards this week so be sure to check them out. I hope you can join us in the gallery!
