Winter is All About the Snowflakes!

Hi friends.  Bonnie here again from Make Time to Craft.  I'm so excited to have the opportunity to share my projects with you this month as the guest designer.  I just love working with Cheery Lynn Designs dies.  I went ahead and made a card to inspire you to play along with the Snowflake themed challenge this week.

I started with a 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" top fold card in dark blue.  I used the Eccentric Circles XL Embossing Plate on a very light blue cardstock for my background for some subtle texture.  I have a layer of the dark blue cardstock and some white mulberry paper under that.  

I cut a Ribbon Eyelet Border with Piercing Strip for the left side of my card and I laced white diamond satin from Really Reasonable Ribbon through the holes.  I used the same ribbon to create my double-loop bow.  This bow is pretty subdued for me, but I think it's perfect for this card.

I created double-layered snowflakes with the Snowflake 5 die and I think backing it with the dark blue layer really makes the snowflakes stand out.  The sentiment from Create with TLC ties the whole thing together.
