I absolutely love this new set featured in the Holiday Mini catalog, Serene Snowflakes, as well as the Icicles rub-ons.  Here is it used with Chocolate Chip and Bella Bleu (Very Vanilla). The technique used is Heat Embossing.

I really enjoyed making this non-traditional holiday card…using Very Vanilla!!!  Something different. Hope you enjoy it and it inspires you to think of new holiday color combinations!

The Stampin’ Up! product used:

  • Chocolate Chip Craft Ink
  • Serene Snowflakes stamp set
  • Sweet Swirls wheel
  • Clear Embossing Powder
  • Heat Gun
  • Dazzling Diamonds
  • Two-way Glue Pen
  • Icicles rub-ons
  • Kraft Taffeta Ribbon
  • Silver Buckle from the Styled Silver Hodgepodge Hardware

To make this card:

  1. Create a 5-1/4 x 5-1/4 Square Card using Very Vanilla cardstock.
  2. Cut either two pieces of different patterned Very Vanilla paper from the Bella Bleu designer series paper pack (as I did) or just use one pattern.
  3. At the bottom, ink up the wheel with Craft ink and then roll across. Cover with embossing powder, shake off the excess powder and heat.
  4. Then, for the top section, rub-on many snowflakes of different sizes.
  5. Then ink up the snowflakes from the Serene Snowflakes stamp set and stamp around (using Craft Ink). Emboss them.


     

  6. Next, using the Two-Way Glue Pen, add Dazzling Diamonds to the snowflakes or where desired. I added it to the snowflakes and in between the swirls at the bottom.
  7. Adhere the two pieces down to the card front.
  8. Lastly, wrap a piece of ribbon around, threading it through the buckle, and adhere on the inside of the card.
