Welcome, and thanks for the visit!
Today's post is a short one with a card for a couple of challenges. I ended up posting my last card (blue & white) Color Hues #125, and then was asked to join another challenge asking for shades of blue, Inspirational #359. So I came up with this card, probably for my eldest grandson this next Christmas ~
While this has several layers, it's a pretty easy card (HA - struggles listed later). The blue layer was cut with a cover plate punching out the starts and snowflakes, then layered over a layer of white glitter cs. A second panel of glitter cs was then cut using an NBUS die for the treeline, layered over that. Lastly, I cut the NBUS snowman and put him together, thinking I would add him on a wobbler. That's where the frustration started! I have these wobblers and yet I struggle to use them, 1) they aren't "flat" under the sticky portion, so the small side always has trouble sticking to whatever I want to wobble; 2) with added glue and using my reverse tweezers, I try to get them to stick more and still no success! Thus, I removed the wobbler and layered him straight onto the panel -- easier for mailing anyway, with all the layers of glitter cs! A foiled sentiment was then added. With two unused products now used, this'll be going to NBUS #182 too!
Supplies:
HB - Northern Star coverplate
