Joy of Sets-Thankful for You

Hello and welcome to another Joy of Sets Blog Hop! This month we have an awesome line up and I can’t wait to see how everyone interpreted our theme of “Thankful for You”. I do know you will leave feeling inspired!

Once I knew what our theme was I knew right away that I wanted to use the Snowflake Wishes stamp set and coordinating die set, So Many Snowflakes, from our Handmade for You catalogue. I was really intrigued that Stampin’ Up! had decided to add the sentiment “Thank You Snow Much” into this set and I wanted to find a clever way to use it.

I started my design by stamping the sentiment on a piece of vellum using Momento ink. I then stamped the snowflake cluster in Highland Heather ink around the phrase as a border. Be careful when stamping on vellum as it does need a little bit more drying time.

I layered this piece on a slightly larger piece of Whisper White card stock that I ran through the Winter Snow embossing folder and then finally added that piece to a square of the Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper.

This photo shows off all three layers nicely I think! I also stamped the same image on the top left and bottom right corners of the card. The base is Purple Posy and the ink is Highland Heather.

I decided to add another strip of the designer paper along the left side and add a few ribbon details. I love our Denim Ribbon! Did you know its still current and available in the Annual Catalogue? A bit of the Purple Posy ribbon from the Playing with Patterns combo is also a great addition.

And finally, got to have some bling so I added in the Snowflake Sequins. Adding sequins to your project could not be easier if you have the Take a Pick Tool! It is one of my favorite craft room must haves!

I absolutely love the Snowflake Spendor suite or set in the Handmade for You Catalogue! If you are in Canada and would love to get your hands on any of these items, please use the Hostess Code on my sidebar or shop with me directly using my online store!
