I purchased this die set a while ago, never used it last winter, thought it was about time. Everything you see here is part of the set. Instead of brayering like last week, I made my own cardstock by direct to paper with the two inks. Doing that means the colors are deeper than typical cardstock but I like it that way and plus, the direct to paper adds some texture. Diecut words are enhanced with WOS and there are clear Stickles in the center of the little snowflakes inside.

What a great shape for a Christmas or Winter card, Love the way it folds too. I agree with the direct-to-paper -- you do get some wonderful texture and saturated colors. Wonderful card. Happy New Year.

Gorgeous. Wonderful die-set for these challenge colors. Beautiful card fold. Clever idea to make your own colored cardstock and it did add some cool texture. I imagine your card is so sparkly IRL. I hope we see an encore with these dies in 2022. Happy New Year!

I love your very tricky folded snowflake card, but what caught my eye were the photo of the piano player (encore) and the peacock paper in the background. Talk about excellent photo staging!

I am so glad you told me you had this die set and used it on SCS. I searched for it before I made mine but must have put in the wrong search words. I love yours and you are right about the direct to paper having more texture. Love yours and I want to make another. I like your snowflakes on the side (inside) panel. I didn't think to do that.
