MIX672 - Snowflakes
I began with the background, using a retired DRS Designs snowflake stamp. The image was white heat‑embossed to create a crisp resist, and then I blended two shades of distress oxide ink over the embossed snowflakes to add depth and variation in color.
For the focal point, I stamped the Stampendous bird image and heat embossed it in gold for a rich, metallic finish. After fussy cutting the bird, I sponged the edges with tan distress oxide ink to soften the cut lines and give the piece more definition.
To complete the design, I adhered the bird with dimensionals, allowing it to stand out against the snowy background and adding texture and lift to the overall composition.
Thank you for stopping by to check out my card today. I appreciate the lovely comments. If you leave me a comment, I can stop by your blog for a visit.
So lovely Lisa, love the embossed snowflakes - a perfect background for the beautiful dove. xx
