This past Thursday was my monthly downline meeting. I love being able to visit with the other demonstrators in my group as we swap cards and make projects. Here's the swap card I made for the meeting.
The base of my card is 5 1/4" square. For some reason I don't often think of using Whisper White cardstock for layering. I tend to think of it more for stamping on as the main focal image. I'm not sure why that is, but I think it works great as two of the layers in this card.
In the center of the card, the Night of Navy cardstock is 3 1/2" square, the Whisper White is 3 3/8" square, and the Baja Breeze is 3 1/4" square. It's difficult to see in the photo, but I stamped the small snowflake stamp from Season of Friendship stamp set in Baja Breeze ink on the Baja Breeze cardstock.
I added lots of paper piercing around all four edges of the Ski Slope designer series paper as well as around the Baja Breeze cardstock under the snowflake. I also pierced the six holes for the Silver Brads using my Paper Piercing Template.
The snowflake was cut from Shimmery White cardstock using the Snowflake #2 die for the Big Shot. I placed the snowflake on top of the three layers of cardstock under it and pierced a hole in the center of the snowflake that went through the three layers of cardstock as well. I put a clear Rhinestone Brad from the Pretties Kit through the hole and that's how the snowflake is attached to the card. Because I didn't use any adhesive, the snowflake can rotate around in circles.
I'll be back tomorrow to show you one of the fun projects we made at the meeting. Thanks for stopping by! ~Dannie
