Stampin' Up! Snowflakes Showcase continues to be a showstopper

  • Stampin' Up! Snowflake Showcase Ends November 30
  • Beautiful Blizzard and Snowfall Thinlits
  • Final day for First of Three Stampin' Up! Online Extravaganza
  • A new Stamparatus Case

Stampin' Up! Beautiful Blizzard Stamp set


I'm still amazed at the beautiful cards I received as swaps in Orlando, during Stampin' Up! OnStage.  Today I'm showing you another swap I received.  Hard as I tried, I could not get a photo that captured how beautiful this card is in real life.  It is a stunning example of simplicity that can be created with the dies from the Snowfall Thinlits.  The Beautiful Blizzard Stamp set and the Snowfall Thinlits are a limited-time set that goes away at the end of November.   I'm so grateful for the time my fellow demonstrators devoted to creating these wonderful cards.          

  



This card uses Thick Whisper White cardstock as the base card, and regular Whisper White as the next layer.  The center snowflake is die cut from Silver Glimmer Paper with the Snowfall Thinlits.    

The Big Shot Embossing Mat and the largest snowflake die in the Snowfall Thinlits was used to create a debossed area under the Silver Glimmer Paper Snowflake.  The debossed area is covered with Wink of Stella creating a shimmery focal point to the center of the card.

The center of the Glimmer Paper snowflake is accented with a Clear Epoxy Droplet.
  

   


The sentiment is from the is from the Beautiful Blizzard Stamp Set, and is heat embossed with Silver Embossing Powder.    
   
Stampin' Up! posted a list of Holiday Catalog items recently that had received higher-than-forecasted demand and were sold out, as well as several items with low inventory.  If you've had your eye on any items from the Holiday catalog, make sure you order soon.  Also, this Beautiful Blizzard and Snowfall Thinlits dies will disappear November 30.  Take a look at other sets and dies available in the Stampin' Up! Main Catalog as well as the Holiday Catalog.

These items from the Holiday catalogs will carry over, which means your investment in these sets will extend beyond the holidays.  There may be more carry overs, but we know about these for certain.
