Joy Snowflake

Since Christmas day is here and we know that we don't have time to craft, but we may need a quick and easy tag for a gift to whip up last minute.    Here is my tag to inspire you.    The hardest part is the heat embossing, but wow what a great look when it comes together.

Heat emboss the snowflake with white embossing powder than sponge on some ink and viola wow!

The tag corners were punched out with the  Punch Trio Curvy.

Hope everyone has a great day with their family and friends!   Merry Christmas!

InColors

We are now blog hopping at Caseing the Catty.   So hop with us from one design team member to the next. I hope you can join us in the hop and enjoy all the beautiful creations that we case (copied and steal everything) from the 2015-16 Stampin' Up! catalog.   This week we are challenge everyone to take two of the new InColors and pair them up with a neutral. 

I decided to use the Mint Macaron and Cucumber Crush.    I pulled out the trees from the Happy Scenes and used them as the focal for the card.    If you look closely, I stamped in the background the Work of Art brush strokes to add dimension.   I used a Retro Sketch of the week for the inspiration for the card design.
