Hello! It’s Thursday and you know that means it is time for a Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge. This time it is a fun color combination to inspire us!

SNOW CRYSTAL
I thought the large snowflake from Snow Crystal Stamp would be perfect done up in pink and blue colors!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Night of Navy cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White was stamped with Polished Pink and Balmy Blue snowflakes and added to the front.
- A 3 x 3-1/2 piece of Snowflake Vellum was added to the center.
- The greeting from the new Framed & Festive stamp set (available while supplies last!) was stamped with Night of Navy Ink on Balmy Blue cardstock and cut with the Seasonal Labels Die.
- Another long Seasonal Labels Die was cut from Night of Navy cardstock. Both were added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Some Solid Faceted Gems were added to the background in pink and blue.

What a FUN snowflake card with its bright colors! I may use this as my Christmas card this year! The Snowflake Vellum just adds so much sparkle in the background, too! Go check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this challenge over on Create with Connie and Mary
