Snowflake Kisses


the theme on Wednesday Stamper is Snowflake Kisses.On Cute Card Thursday it's snowflakes so two in one go. The blue background is made with Gesso and Glimmermists on a shiny black card , shame you cannot see all the glimmer.
The purple blue background behind the Let it Snowstamp ( by ???) is done by crumpling up colourful magazine paper, then covered with a thin layer of Gesso and Glimmermist , then Versamark and clear embossing powder and once that is dry it is stamped and cut with a Nestability.
The lined background is from the ledger background stamp from Cornish Heritage Farms
The sides of the clear card have again Gesso on them ( can you tell I love the stuff?)and there are several snowflakes stamped at random.

The challenge op Wednesday Stamper is Sneeuwvlok kusjes en op Cute Card Thursday is het sneeuwvlokjes dus twee in 1 dit keer .Ik heb een achtergrond gemaakt van Gesso en Glimmermists op een glimmende zwarte kaart , jammer dat je niet alle glimmer kunt zien.
de paars/ blauwe achtergrond is gedaan met verlreukeld papier uit een tijdschrift daar een dun laagje Gesso op en Glimmermist dan Versamark en clear embossingpoeder en toen dat droog was bestempeld. Uitgestans met een Nestability.
De achtergrond met lijntjes is van de Ledger Background van CornishHeritageFarms
De randen zijn met Gesso ingesmeerd ( raad je al dat ik gek op dat spul ben?) en er zijn verschillende sneeuwvlokken op gestempeld.

Superkaartje Ellen en nu nog hopen dat het echt gaat sneeuwen. Hier lukt dat steeds minder goed. Bij jou wel? En gesso is superspul!
