MCV 50







I am delighted to see as our Guest designer over at the MCV challenge Elizabeth Stewart! She makes the most beautiful cards and this one is a Christmas stunner...look at all that sparkle ,whats not to love!
I found my eyes being drawn to the circles and how they all touched one another in some way ,the snowflakes and of course that sparkly paper. 
I  punched the circles and die cut out 2 sets of  the snowflakes before fitting the white ones back in - boy what a fiddly job it was getting all the sparkly bits from the other set to fit inside the snowflakes (needed a glass of wine when I had finished!!! )
Using the sparkly set of snowflakes I then added them so that they touched their neighbours and finally stamped the sentiment in blue before heat embossing the sentiment in white on the vellum.I had hoped it would add a shadow to the embossed sentiment but unfortunately it didn't work :( but thanks for taking the time to look
