Mixed Media Pink Snowflakes

I was playing around with my new Memory Box Pine Tree Hill dies which both cut and impress. It occurred to me to try sponging the die like you might an embossing folder.  It worked!  I then used Distress Snowfall Grit Paste over  the die.  It's a cool effect! I do wonder if I had used an archival ink if the ink wouldn't have blurred but I like it either way.

Coffee Cup Card, Winter Take 2

I thought I would do a different take on my card the other day.  What a difference a change in paper makes!  I’m also quite pleased with the sentiment placement which took me a couple of tries.  It helps to have the reading glasses on, let me tell ya.
