We are entering the freezer zone here...and it's expected to last for the entire week! Temperatures hovering around highs of -18C and lows of -26C (-4F to -15F) is enough to have my timbers shivering, I tell you! Time to bring out the mondo North Face parka!
Anyway...on a warmer note....Let me show you what happened when I married Freshly Made Sketches #265
(Uniko Vines Winter Additions, Happy Little Stampers Mixed Christmas Sentiments,
Concord & 9th Joy)
NOTE: thrilled to be selected for an Honourable Mention at Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #265! THANK YOU!!
I wonder what would happen if I tried this with snowflakes? Perhaps we'll see....

ReplyDeleteGorgeous card. Love the technique - it's always a showstopper.
ReplyDeleteSuch a festive card. Here on Crete, our day temperatures are as low as 10 °C, which is really cold winter weather for this region. Makes me really thankful that we have central heating in our modern house.
ReplyDeleteLovely & CAS - right up my street Carol. I love how you've masked the stamps to make a circle x
ReplyDeleteLOVE how you have used the tiny Uniko stamps and perfectly CAS card. Thank you so much for inspiring and joining in on the Uniko Challenge. My apologies for my lateness in commenting. Hugs Bev x
