Winter Hello

I was in need of some last minute Christmas cards the other day, so I created my own background paper by stamping these fabulous snowflakes all over 3 full-sized sheets of paper.  Then I cut them out with a stitched rectangle die to end up with 12 panels.  Since I only needed 10 Christmas cards and had 12 panels, I decided to turn the last two into these fun "Winter Hello" cards.  It's a bit hard to tell, but that's what the sentiment says.  You can see my Christmas cards in this post.  I dressed these two cards up with a bit of gold glitter paper down the side and added stickles to the centers of all the snowflakes.  So pretty and sparkly in real life.

 Don't you love that sparkle!?  I didn't have any card stock to match my pink ink, so I just used a sponge dauber and sponged ink on the smaller banner to match.  It works perfectly.

 Here are the two cards side by side:

Each panel is just a little bit different and it was really fun to do.
