So Suzy Stamps January Blog Hop

Hi Everybody!

Welcome to the January So Suzy Stamps Design Team January Blog Hop!
Our theme is - Vellum and Baby its cold outside.
You probably arrived from the talented Martha from Stampartpapel.
Here is my card:
I also went with our January theme - Baby its cold outside and vellum.

Curious how I made this card?
I dry embossed vellum - best done in between sheets of regular paper, so it does not rip. Added the sentiment on a piece of pale blue card stock and attached the vellum to it. Added some Washi tape on top and silver embroidery thread. For some sparkle I generously added Wink of Stella to the snowflakes and extra Stickles in the center.
Perhaps you can see this better in those magnified pictures, where somehow the color totally disappeared...

I stamped the sentiment onto light blue card stock, attached teh vellum panel and added Washi tape on top as well as a silver embroidery thread.
Your next stop on the hop is Olesya - she makes the most amazing cards! You can't miss her!

You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey.

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
