Welcome back to this afternoon’s post. I hope everyone has been enjoying the fabulous new release dies and stamps and checking out the wonderful makes from the DT!! I have a wintery themed card for you today. On days like today when it’s 90+ degrees it’s hard to believe that snow and cold will arrive again.
The card base is 5.25 x 5.25 which shows off the wonderful Snowflake Ring. I cut out the snowflake ring twice and snipped one of the rings so I could have the interlaced. The background for this card was done with watercolors and some bubble wrap which created the dots you see. The “snow” on the card was done with UTEE heated from the backside so all of the embossing powder didn’t fly all over my desk. I used a stipple brush and white acrylic paint to lightened up the edges of the panel.
And finally, I stamped the sentiment from the Snowglobe Wishes stamp set in blue stazon ink.
For a chance to win the Snowflake Ring, leave a comment to be entered into the random drawing. Good luck to everyone and don’t forget to come back and visit tomorrow to see more more wonderful inspiration and another chance to win!!

Blue and white Christmas cards have always been my favourite ones – and I love, love, love this one combining my other favourite thing – watercolour.
I love that card just as much as I love my WI winters! I could have so much fun with that snowflake ring die. I make a lot of winter cards. [Besides that it’s hot and humid here this week… and I SO don’t like it!]
STUNNING!!! With the humidity here, we are near 100 + degrees…..No air conditioning at home or at work and the fans just aren’t cooling us down. Send me some of that snow to cool me down 😉

Love your card and the die is so pretty another for my wish list, and hard to believe temperatures of 90 degrees, we are in the midst of summer and are only getting 20 degrees celcius in my bit of the uk not our normal summer dull cloudy days so your card really brightened my day so thank you.
Love this die & your card is beautiful.

LOVE your delicate layered snowflake rings and MAGICAL background!!! You sure have done a wonderful job creating this chilly card on such a HOT day 🙂
… it was 3oC here this morning, that’s about 37oF, never been cold enough for snow where we live but frosty mornings turn the lawn white and freeze the water in the bird baths!
I love this die – not only do I think of snowflakes, but they also remind me of snowballs. Gorgeous card – AND fun!!!
Really cool and stunning, love the dimension!

Wow ! Another fabulous creation, well two fabulous creations, both the card and the die are really fantastic.
Lovely die and a super pretty card.
This is a beautiful card Shelby. I would love this die, the ideas are endless. TFS and the chance to win!
Those snow rings are a wonderful coupled with the three “let it snow”s from the song. I bet the rings would also look cool cut part and used as swirling snow in a foreground. Snowflakes, especially Dave’s, are just the best for the season. Those flakes almost make me love wintertime…quite a feat. Thank you.
Beautiful, stunning background! Love those colors and it sets off the snowflake rings dies perfectly!
I bought this Snowflake ring die today. I love the colors you use with it! A blue Christmas!
