Today I have a fun, swirly snowflake card for you with a fun color combination — Sweet Sugarplum and Copper. I used the Swirly Snowflakes Thinlit Dies — what a great set of dies. This made for an elegant, lacy card. The snowflakes are so intricate. I used the Year of Cheer designer paper to add to the swirly look and feel of the card.
Year of Cheer & Smitten Mittens
I’ve been playing with the Smitten Mitten Bundle and I’m having a blast. I pair Real Red with Gold Foil Sheet and the Year of Cheer designer paper (love this gold gingham pattern). The greeting is from Hearts Come Home stamp set. The Many Mittens Framelits has so many fun dies. I love that they put in two mitten outline dies — left and right hand. Then the fun cut out pattern is in Real Red added over a Whisper White mitten base for a fun peekaboo mitten. Cut a second cut out pattern mitten and flip it over to attach to the second Whisper White mitten base. I added a small gold bow for a finishing touch.

Miracle of Christmas in Metals
This Year of Cheer card has lots of different metals all combined together for one fabulous card. I used the Snowflake Sentiments stamp set for the beautiful Copper embossed snowflake which is surrounded with a Gold Foil circle which is popped up on a Silver Foil Snowflake. I used the Year of Cheer designer paper against the Whisper White and added a strip of fun Year of Cheer Washi Tape down the center. The Washi Tape I used has Copper, Gold and Silver in it. I used Copper Foil Sheet under the designer paper/Whisper White layer and attached it all to a Dapper Denim card base. I ended with a Year of Cheer Embellishment added between the copper snowflake layer and the Silver Foil Snowflake.
