Glittered Snowflakes w/Dawn ft. FOLK ART FLURRIES

Hello crafty friends! I'm back with more glitter! I know, I know...glitter. I'm blaming it on the holiday season.

But, in my defense, it's glitter embossing powder. So slightly less traumatic. ;o) And can you blame me? These cards are gorgeous, and pretty easy to pull together. So easy in fact, that I created a trio of them. Be sure to watch below to see how these all came together.

I've been on a kick with the glittered embossing powders lately. I love how quickly you can add tons of sparkle to your projects without a lot of fuss. I paired a few of them up with our Folk Art Flurries stamp set to stamp a fun glittered patterned paper of snowflakes.

I also used the glitter embossing powders to create some DIY glitter cardstock to die cut snowflakes from them using our Snowflake Trio Die. They make a beautiful backdrop for the sentiments when layered together on top of a dry embossed snowflake created using our Simple Snowflake Die.

There are tons of glitter embossing powders on the market, but you can also create your own. This is perfect if you want to test the waters and see if it's something you'd like, before jumping in to purchase.

I mixed equal parts of a colored embossing powder and loose glitter together to create this one. I just love the depth of color and shimmer I was able to create.

The clean and simple layout of this card set really lets that sparkle and shine take center stage without competing with it. I left everything monochromatic and let the embossing powders add the color. Even the sentiment, die cut from Oatmeal cardstock using our Holiday Presents Die, was left tone-on-tone.

The entire focal point is compact and centered on a label from our Holly Jolly Die. I love how big this label is. It definitely carries the card and keeps all of the focus right where it should be.

All of the cards were finished off with a sprinkling of jewels from Studio Katia and Pretty Pink Posh. I've linked all of the products I used on today's projects below. I wasn't able to find a few, perhaps they've been discontinued, so in some cases I've linked good substitutions where applicable.

I really don't usually hit the glitter this hard, but like I said, I'm gonna blame it on the Holiday's! How about you? Is there something that you reserve just for the Holiday's?

Thanks so much for stopping by, I hope your weekend is going well!
