It’s Thursday and you know that means it is time for a Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge. It’s a fun sketch this week.

SPARKLING SNOWFLAKES
I thought the circles on this sketch would be great for snowflakes! I’m certainly not ready to see them in the air around here, but I love snowflake stamps! This one came together pretty quickly and would be great for mass producing as well!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Thick Basic White cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Pool Party cardstock was embossed with the Snowflake Sky Embossing Folder and added to the front.
- A 3/4 x 4-3/4 strip of Lost Lagoon cardstock was added to the front.
- The 1-3/4 x 3-3/4 piece of Snowflake Magic Specialty Designer Paper was added on top.
- The snowflakes were stamped with Pool Party Ink for the solid image, then Lost Lagoon detail image on top and punched with the 2″ and 1-1/2″ Circle Punches. They were added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The greeting from Sparkling Snowflakes was stamped with Lost Lagoon Ink on a 3/4 x 2-1/4 piece of Basic White cardstock and the end cut at an angle, then adhered on front.
- A trio of silver Neutrals Adhesive Backed Sequins were added to the snowflake centers and the background.

SO pretty…love the sparkle of the silver in the background! Go check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this challenge over on Create with Connie and Mary
