I used the Endless Wishes stamp set from Stampin’ Up! to create my card for the Stamping and Blogging sketch challenge this week.  Once you check out my project, be sure to stop by the other design team members blogs to see what they’ve created with this sketch.

My card design was inspired by the Stamping and Blogging SB81 sketch.

I started by adhering a panel of All Is Calm Speciality DSP to a panel of Lost Lagoon card stock with SNAIL, then to a Soft Sky card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the images from the Endless Wishes photopolymer stamp set in Lost Lagoon, Pear Pizzazz and Soft Sky inks on a Whisper White panel.  Then I stamped the sentiment in VersaMark ink, sprinkled it with Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat embossed it.

I adhered the stamped panel to a panel of Lost Lagoon card stock with SNAIL, then wrapped a strand of Pear Pizzazz 1/4″ Cotton Ribbon around the panel and adhered it with SNAIL.  I adhered the stamped panel to the card front with SNAIL, then added Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the center of each snowflake.

I punched a 1-1/4″ Circle from Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper, adhered it to a 1-3/8″ Circle Punch from Lost Lagoon card stock with SNAIL, then to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I wanted to use the snowflake die from the Snowflake Card Thinlits Dies set to create my embellishment, but the actual die cut was too large for what I needed…so I chopped it up!  I cut the snowflake from Silver Foil Sheets and snipped the four longer “arms” off.  I put a small amount of Multipurpose Liquid Glue on the back of the snowflake, then reattached the arms by sliding them in and adhering them with the glue.

I adhered my modified snowflake to the card front with a Glue Dot, then cut the smaller snowflake from Lost Lagoon card stock and I adhered it over the Silver Foil snowflake with a touch of Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I added a Rhinestone to the center of the snowflake to finish the card front.

I stamped the snowflake images from the Endless Wishes stamp set in Soft Sky, Pear Pizzazz and Lost Lagoon inks on a Whisper White panel inside the card.
