Greetings friends. I don’t know about you, but this time of year I am in need of thank you cards. I cheat a little and sometimes make combination Christmas/birthday thank you cards (a perk of having a birthday near Christmas), but overall, I find that it is prudent to have a stack on hand.
To make my card, I started with some beautiful plaid paper from the Dashing Holiday pack and then added my white circle and white die cut letters. I thought that my snowflakes would get lost in the design if they were also in white paper, so I cut them out of silver metallic cardstock. Unfortunately, the metallic paper didn’t have enough sheen and sparkle to it, so I thought I should help it along by adding some Stickles.
I placed my snowflakes onto a non-stick sheet and painted them with some sparkly glitter glue. It took a bit of time for them to dry, but I knew it would make less of a mess if I added my sparkle and then added my dried glittery snowflakes to the card:
Here is a closeup of the finished glittered elements:
Good luck finishing up any remaining holiday cards and think about having a few thank you cards on hand. You just might need them!
