White Snowflake Card

Hello everyone!  Hope you are all enjoying the new year so far!  :)  I have been so busy on my Christmas vacation that I have actually enjoyed the last two days of doing nothing!  This is my last week off and I just plan on relaxing, going to lunch a couple of days, hanging out, etc...  Last week I went to Disneyland and it was so packed that they were actually not selling tickets anymore!!!  I have never seen the park that busy!!!  Luckily we were able to get in because we had already gone in earlier that day and we had the "magical" hand stamp for re-entry....  Anywho, here is a card that I made to enter into some challenges...  YAY!  :)

My Craft Spot- Winter Wonderland & use glitter
Go Fish Challenge Blog- white on white (this was tough for me)
BBTB2- Winter Woodland ice skate
Victorine Stamps- use a punch
A Muse Studio Challenge Blog- use heat embossing
Exploring Cricut- winter scene or activity
Pile it On- anything goes
Ladybug Crafts- anything goes, use your new stash (my rhinestones)
Fresh Brewed Blog- use something new
Jellypark Challenges- use something new (rhinestones) and something old (MS punch)
Creative Cutter Room- use glitter/Stickles




Wild Card- scalloped card base cut at 4.88"
Winter Woodland- ice skate cut at 3.35"
Cuttlebug- swiss dots, snowflakes
Scrappy Moms Stamps- Winter Wishes
MS snowflake punch
a la mode sparkle embossing powder (used on the snowflakes & ice skate bow)
a la mode detail silver embossing powder (used on ice skate and sentiment)
MS glitter- crystal fine (I added this to the embossed snowflake background with a Zig glue pen)
Silver ink pad (I inked the edges of the ice skate)
Rhinestones
Pearl

Hope you enjoy and hope you have a wonderful day!  Thanks for stopping by!  :)

Like your white on white Skate card. Guess we thought somewhat alike since I posted a Skate card today also. I worked for the Mouse as in Mickey Mouse at Disney World in FL thru high school & college and when we went in we would drive past the gates to see if the park was full/closed and it was many a times.
