The Snowflake

Well, since we are still in the heart of winter I guess it only appropriate that we will still see lots of snowflakes fall. A while back with a qualifying order from Stampers Companion I received this beautiful snowflake collage that I had been dying to use and when the latest Mod Squad Blog challenge came up, I figured it was the perfect time to make use of it. The title of the collage image is of course The Snowflake.

I did a very clean and simple design by stamping the whole stamp image in blue ink onto a lighter blue card stock. I then added lots of rhinestone bling to frame it and to enhance the snowflakes. Guess what I need to get for my supply stash now? LOL I finished it by adding it to a navy blue/white duplex card base. And I really like it even though it is a simple design.  It should be very easy to mail too as it is not too bulky.

Anyway, this is my entry into the Mod Squad Blog challenge for this week. I am so enjoying doing the challenges and hopefully, some of you can join in on the fun as well!

Oh, the collage image is from Stamp-It Australia.
