April Rudolph Days Challenge

Time has flown by so fast and here it is already the day when the April Rudolph Days Challenge begins. I did not have a card ready so this afternoon I did one with some dies I had purchased a few months ago and had not used yet. I got them from the Cat's Pajamas and they are the Creative Supplies Joy die and the Creative Supplies Snowflake Border die. I used glitter paper and mirror card stock from Crafter's Companion to die cut them out and also made a frame from the mirror card stock using the Maker's Movement Stitched Rectangles Nested Essentials die set. 



I used a white card stock base. After I had it all assembled I added the finishing touch of a few gems to follow along the snowflake border design.

We did in fact get a few snowflakes today so it did seem appropriate to work with a design like this. It was a fun project as well.

Thanks for visiting and I hope all are doing well and having a great day!

God bless, Verna

Awesome card. The blue shimmer adds to the frostiness of the snowflakes. We had snow last week too. Snowflakes are much prettier on a card.

The blue satin mirri card works so well with the glittered snowflake die cuts to create a gorgeous festive card.
