Happy Tuesday everyone! leslierahye here sharing a valentine tag. I began by diecutting the snowflake mesh border out of acetate to use as a template. I spray-misted with opaque white over the top of kraft card to create the "texture" on the background. Next I stamped a grid pattern over the kraft tag and distressed and inked the edges with pink.]

For the ruffle on the bottom of the tag, I adhered a liquid glue to the back of the kraft tag and attached my crumpled Ankara Lace Border to the edge. A bit of Ankara Lace also peeks out of the side of the tag where the kraft  is ripped.

To finish off the tag, the snowflake doily was layered with the Two of Hearts and some scrolling bling. Love and You were cut and added to the bottom of the tag.

 Hello Everyone!

Corina here with you today to share a Winter themed card. I will show you how I added texture/pattern to my card, with the snowflake border die to create a stencil and texture paste.

First I die cut the Snowflake Mesh Border out of thick/heavy card stock.
 
I love how it turned out! Cheery Lynn dies work so well for this technique because they are so detailed.

Also the Stencil that is left looks interesting with the texture paste on it - frosty! I will have to create a card using it for next week!


Here is a close up of the texture card stock after I layered a few snowflake dies and my sentiment. I tied a piece of white seam binding across the center to hide the gap in the middle. I used the

Dancing Snow Flurries snowflake, one snowflake from set #1 & #2 of Snowflowers, and a few of the small snowflake to create my blizzard! I finished my card off by adding a little Bling to the snowflakes!
