Snow is Falling

Hi everyone.  Today I'm sharing a Blue and Silver Christmas card.  I always try to play along in some Christmas challenges each month if I have time.  Today's card works for three! :)

I used Magical Sprays - Blue Hydrangea (Lindy's) for the background.  I hope you can see a little of the bright blue shimmer.  It's so pretty in real life.  I then silver heat embossed the snowflake (Snow is Falling - Visible Images) and sentiment that are both from the same set.  I added some fine silver embossing to the outline of the main panel as well.

Close-up ...

and

I hope you'll come play along!

    Beautiful card and what a gorgeous color! I really need to get some of those magicals after I’ve seen you use them. I can see the sheen on this and it’s fabulous with that sivler snowflake.

    Wonderful card! At first I thought the snowflake was a die-cut. Great job stamping and heat embossing it. The blue (my fave 😉) is so vibrant and beautiful. The shimmer IRL must be gorgeous.

    Love the blue and silver color combination of this card Loll, it's such a cool card! A cool stamp too, I love how the snowflake changes like that. I can imagine how beautiful the background is in real life, I can see some of that shimmer, but I'm sure not like you can in real life. Love this! Hugs, Brenda

    Gorgeous snowflake card, Loll! The bright blue Magical sprayed background is amazing! You captured the shimmer of the Magical and the shine of the heat-embossing so well in the pictures!
    The simple color combo is perfect for this bold and artsy snowflake!

    What a great snowflake! Very artsy and beautiful against the blue. The second photo shows more of the shimmer and the edges, but I know it's much more spectacular IRL!

    I can imagine all the glitter of your beautiful background. It is a pity that the photography does not reflect this. This snowflake looks amazing and so artistic and adding silver embossing around the background adds even more beauty to the card
