This is my card for the SCS Free for All F4A197 Challenge of "Let it SNOW!" where you need to make a card with snowflakes, snow-covered hills or ground ... or embellishment that make you think of snow. Please see this link for the details on the challenge: F4A197 - Let It SNOW! - 11/29/13 by Wendybell at Splitcoaststampers
I went for a very clean and simple card as the card needed to be flat and therefore mail-friendly.
The beautiful diecut snowflake is a die by Simon Says Stamp - Eliza Snowflake - and was diecut in my Big Shot using silver glitter cardstock. I glued the snowflake on using Tombow Mono Multi glue by painting on the glue using a very small paintbrush.
I added a strip of silver cardstock at the top then border punched the white cardstock using an EK Success Scalloped Scallop border punch. I added a strip of the silver glitter cardstock under the white cardstock.
Even though the card it simple, it was a little fiddly gluing down the snowflake to get it centred and have all the snowflake points in just the right position. I made some pencil marks on my white cardstock to help me line up the snowflake as just plonking it down in hopefully the right place wasn't going to work.
