Happy OSAT Blog Hop Day! The OSAT Design Team are hopping from the last time in 2019, isn’t that sad. Don’t worry we will be hopping again in January. To finish off this year in style our final theme is Holiday Festivity with the guideline of Winter Holiday Theme.
With this I started pondering over winter and the imagery that surround this. Straight away I though snowflakes with silver tones. I started by searching out ways of incorporating silver as the main feature, this is when I remember how beautiful the Feels Likes Frost Designer Series Paper is. It’s incredible with the imagery on one side and the foiled pattern on the reverse, I know it’s a favourite of some of yours.
For those of your who have popped by before now and know my work, I don’t normally like over the top backgrounds such as this. However due to the composition and the simple colour theme of just white and silver it really makes by busy background remain in the background. For the sentiment I knew I wanted to finally use the amazing sentiment from the Holly Jolly Christmas Stamp Set, there’s just something about the silver tones that works with the idea of a magically Christmas.
I wanted a subtle detail added to the project just to create some additional interest to the card. Taking the Snowflake dies from the Christmas Laying Die Set I cut out some more Whisper White card stock and glued this to the sentiment. When gluing the snowflakes down I find it easier to dab a little liquid glue down onto the die cut shape and before sticking it to our project tap any excess off onto some scrap.
