The challenge, if you choose to except it (sorry, I'm in a James Bond kinda mood I guess!!) is to create a holiday project and add sequins to it. And I did just that, but in a cute snowflakes nontraditional color sort of way. Here's what I came up with...
One of my favorite holiday/winter sets is the Festive Flurries stamp set with its matching snowflake framelits. I hope these stay a long while longer. I kept the sketch really simple with a stylish striped embossed whisper white layer down the middle, a collection of banners using colors of whisper white, coastal cabana and strawberry slush. I then stamped a smaller snowflake in coastal cabana and a larger one in strawberry slush. Don't get me wrong, I love traditional holiday colors, but I also enjoy outside the box, nontraditional colors too. I wrapped and tied a bow using the black bakers twine and scattered around some of the new in color sequins.
Supplies Used
Cardstock ~ whisper white, soft sky, strawberry slush, coastal cabana
Ink ~ strawberry slush and coastal cabana
Stamp set ~ festive flurries
Misc. ~ black bakers twine, in color sequins, festive flurry framelits, basic rhinestones, banner punch, stylish stripes embossing folder
