Before I show you my card today, I want to thank everyone for your sweet comments on my last post. I had a much better day today (I knew I would.)
The best part of today, was playing with some new goodies! I had such fun! Here's the card I created.
The Hero Arts, Flower Dot Pattern was stamped with Silver ink. The smaller, white embossed snowflakes are from the Hero Arts, Decorate Your Holidays, clear set.
I finally bought a large snowflake punch and love it! I punched out two of them and covered each with Clear Rock Candy, Distress Crackle Paint. The effect is so cool! Here's a close-up so you can see what I mean.
Thanks for coming by! Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! :)

This is sooo gorgeous! I love the colors and the dimension from all the layers, plus the glittery goodness. So pretty, Barb!
How fun to have a snowflake punch like that, it'll get used a lot! I love that effect, it looks great. Glad you're feeling better :)
Ooh this is going to be fun seeing what you are going to make with that Flower Dot Pattern stamp, can't wait! I really love what you did here with the sliver stamping and those large snowflakes are too gorgeous Barb! Spectacular card. So glad you are feeling better today!
A new day, and a great card.
The dominant Turquoise is cool and fresh, and matched with the classic glistening silver perceives a cold winters day. Your design with the large snowflake taking prominence and the softness of the BG is spectacular.
A striking card Barb.
Smiles:)
The snowflake is gorgeous and I love the BG stamp you used with it. Beautifull card, Barb and I am happy to hear everything is OK now.
love those big snowflakes in the silver and turquoise Barb. A stunning card. Glad things are better today
There's something about a new day and having crafty time...that makes for a great combination! Glad today was better...and keep rocking those gorgeous snowflakes. I just bought a snowflake die :)
Great card Barb!! I love all your snowflakes and those big ones look awesome!! I have some crackle paint and just got that rock candy so I'm going to have to pull it out this weekend and experiment. Thanks for inspiring me once again!!!
I can see that you are back "in your zone", Barb! This card is so great - love the colors and all the sparkle! I love my snowflake punches (all 3!). This is a great combo of stamps and textures.
Barb is snowed here yesterday, but the snowflakes were not nearing as beautiful as yours!
Wow, this is drop dead gorgeous Barb! I LOVE this! :)
Barb...this is just gorgeous! Love the crackle and LOVE the colors you chose. What a neat project! Have a good weekend!
Gorgeous for its design, the texture and the palette!
Perfect really ;o)
TFS Barb and glad you're feeling a bit better
I'm so excited that I get to go to a real scrapbooking store tomorrow and stare at all the Hero Arts stamps in person and pick one to take home with me. You've really inspired me to work more with this company. Sheesh, this card is outrageously lovely and creative! I adore the colors and the layers, the sparkle and shine.
Always fun to have new stuff to play with! Love this pretty aqua and silver combo! Great looking snowflake layers!
Hi Barb. So happy to see this beautiful card today. Love that you shared this snowflake embellishment and it really has inspired me to make some for my Christmas tree. Love the magical feel to this card.
So sorry that I haven't been here lately but life really has been crazy but hopefully things will slow down now that I have some projects completed. I also wanted to let you know that you made my day with the wonderful comment you made about my Poppy card. It is those comments that really push me forward to keep doing what I am doing - making cards! Lol. It really means so much.
Thanks for reminding me about the crackle paints...haven't broken those out for a while! LOVE the snowflakes- just beautiful- and it works so nicely with the paisley bg (that stamp is on my "want" list!!)
So, so sparkly and fun! Love that background stamp, too...so pretty in silver!
Beautiful! Love these colors they are gorgeous Christmas colors.
I see you did get that stamp - and what a great way to put it to use - that silver ink is beautiful! Love the distressed snowflakes as well! :)
