The Elegant Pine Snowflakes Suite is captivating me, and one card is leading to the next! The centerpiece of today’s card is a snowflake, made of pine branches in regal colors, cut with a Delicate Pines Die from the Elegant Pine Snowflakes Designer Paper. After cutting the snowflake, I used a Delicate Pines Die to cut branches from an Old Olive pattern of the designer paper. Then, I glued the branches to the back of the snowflake, and placed it on Dimensionals.

The background is Basic White Cardstock, cut with the third largest Branching Out Die. This was glued to Cherry Cobbler Cardstock, cut with the second largest Branching Out Die. And, both were glued to a Pretty Peacock card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.

“Warmest winter wishes” is from the Delicate Pines Stamp Set, stamped in Secret Sea Ink. The berries were cut with a Delicate Pines Die from Cherry Cobbler Cardstock, and glued in place. As a final touch, I added three, Low Profile Sparkle Dots.

Inspiring, as always! This is one of the best representations I have seen using the dark pine snowflake design. Home run, touchdown, hat trick, grand slam—whatever other sports metaphor superlative you want to use—this card is all that. Your attention to detail shines through. Big💕💕💕
What a compliment, Linda! You’re making me laugh. Thank you!
Oh my! I agree with Beth, absolutely stunning!
Thank you, Cindie! I appreciate your comment!
Absolutely stunning. I agree that this is a beautiful stamps set. I love how you created using the dark colours. I have 4 packs of this paper for classes I taught and am left with lots of dark. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thank you, Beth! Congrats on your large class! I’m so happy to be an inspiration.
Beautiful Beautiful Card!
Thank you, Sharon! I’m so glad you like it!
