Happy Monday! It’s time for our Create with Connie and Mary Inspiration Monday challenge!  This is a fun balloon and snowflake décor piece, isn’t it?  So cute and unusual for a winter display!

 

SNOWFLAKE WISHES

I had a little trouble deciding which pinks to use on my card for this challenge!  I ended up with Melon Mambo and Blushing Bride.  Kind of an unusual combination, but I do like how this turned out!

 

Stampin’ Details:

• • The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Blushing Bride cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
  • The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Whisper White cardstock was embossed with the Brick & Mortar Embossing Folder.
  • Some Metallic Mesh Ribbon was wrapped around the Whisper White and tied in a knot on the left side.
  • All three sizes of the Stitched Shapes circles were cut from Melon Mambo cardstock and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • The snowflakes were cut from Whisper White and Blushing Bride cardstock with the So Many Snowflakes Dies, then added with Mini Glue Dots around the circles.
  • Snowflake Wishes from the stamp set was stamped with Memento Black Ink and hand cut around the letters.  It was popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Some Elegant Facet Gems were added to the centers of the snowflakes.

I think this card would be perfect for a January birthday!  OK…check out what Mary did with the Inspiration Monday Challenge over on Create with Connie and Mary!
