Wishing you all the happiest of seasonal preparations throughout the month!
For the next two weeks, join us by uploading an "Anything-Goes" project as long as you use any resist technique on it. The team has all kinds of inspiration and a variety of styles to view, so take a look! Hope to see yours there.
My card is a magical night time dance of snowflakes using two rubber stamp sets from Sparkle N Sprinkle:
Hanging head in shame... because my planning was not satisfactory for this card. The watercolor paper should have been trimmed before stamping the images. The snowflakes were stamped with VersaMark and heat set with White Detail EP. The paper was then spritzed with water and Color Burst watercolor powders" were puffed" onto the wet paper. Both colors were very intense and made a magical night time party of snowflakes.
The edges of the watercolor paper are distressed with VersaFine Clair inks in Purple Delight and Warm Breeze Turquoise, then heat embossed with sparkling Sangria Star EP and Cerulean Star EP.
Embossed the Happy Holidays sentiment on vellum with Sangria EP (no glitter compared to Sangria Star EP)
Products Used:
- Images: SNS Rubber Stamp Sets ($9.99 each) Dancing Penguin, Crystal Snowflakes, Happy Holidays sentiment
- Embossing Powder (for resist) White Detail EP298, Sangria Star EP and Cerulean Star EP, sentiment in Sangria EP
- Coloring Medium: Color Burst in Pthalo Green and Violet
- Paper: Watercolor, Vellum, Razzelberry, White
- Inks: VersaMark, VersaFine Clair inks in Purple Delight and Warm Breeze Turquoise

Great Christmas card
I love how your resist worked out, Donna! Your color choices on the inks were perfect and the snowflakes just pop off the paper. The vellum for the sentiment is such a delightful touch. Love the stars border.
I'm off on my holiday travels and will check in with you as and when I can but will certainly see you upon my return on January 4. Merry Christmas, my friend. :-D
wow Donna, I just adore your snowflake card! The colours are so beautiful.
Donna this is GORGEOUS!! I LOVE the beautiful colors in your snowflakes they remind me of a kaleidoscope! I wish I could make something as beautiful as this!! I love the night sky too!!
Donna, love how you used the resist method on those beautiful snowflakes floating through your night sky. The vellum sentiment piece looks lovely too.
I love using the color burst, but haven't mastered them as yet. Have a lot of samples on my table and some went into the garbage (overkill) but learning curve I guess. Beautiful card.

Hi, Donna! Thanks so much for visiting my blog. I have begun subscribing to your blog, and I would love it if you subscribed to mine! https://paper-paisleys.blogspot.com/ I am in awe of what you created here! Those snowflakes are amazing, how they show the colorburst colors. Did you mask or layer all of those snowflakes??? One of those cards I cannot figure out how you did it, but it's glorious. No head-hanging necessary at all! Merry Christmas! xoxo, Aimeslee
I like the effect these two colours have produced on your card. Very magical. Hugs Mrs A.
WOW Donna...so in love with the brilliance of the colors...Thank you so much for showing how you used the products.
Cheers
