Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog! My heart is having mixed feelings about this Christmas card!
I was excited to use the specialty paper but unsure about my choice of bling after putting this together. What do you think?
The Holly and Ivy Christmas Challenge blog's #124 was released on 9/20/2022 and is an anything Christmas goes theme. The link is provided below for you. My DT commitment card involved wintery colors and bling (different gems from 2 vendors) to enhance the silver glitter snowflake print specialty paper. This was trimmed just a little from a scrap cut included in a multi-paper/cardstocks scraps bag bought at a discount store. The sentiment tag is lifted up with small foam adhesive squares and is from a very old winter holiday scrapbook kit bought in 2010!!!! I've hoarded that set by burying what's left under newer purchases in my Christmas/winter stash box.
Many Holiday Blessings Christmas card;

maybe just the one type of bling, rather than the two totally different styles?

good feedback input, Maxine! I agree. :)
DeleteHello Becca! To my eyes, I think that the bigger blue gems are a bit *too* big for the snowflakes, and I agree with Maxine as well. Still a lovely card though, I do love the colors! Thanks for sharing your "SNOW" creation with us at ABC Christmas, and good luck! :)
