I had so much fun creating with the beautiful Grand Pixie Snowflake S962. Cut out a square piece of distress watercolor paper, about 4 1/2 X 4 1/2. Using a mix of ink and oxides layer on inks spritzing with water in between each layer and drying with the heat tool. Splatter on broken china spritz. Diecut the snowflake (keep it aside for later) and stencil Merry and Joy from TH stencil Christmas THS030 with chipped sapphire. Using opaque texture paste along with Sparkle stencil Sparkle THS132. Set aside to dry.

Diecut out 2 snowflakes from distress watercolor paper and pull out the snowflake diecut from the blue panel. Ink one snowflake with peacock feathers and spritz with broken china. Darken up the faded jeans snowflake and spray on faded jeans sprtiz. Dry both snowflakes using a heat tool. For the last snowflake add on some collage medium and sprinkle on some rock candy and set aside to dry. Layer all 3 snowflakes and add a brad through all of them.

To finish off the card I popped up all panels onto schoolhouse red cardstock and a white cardbase using foam squares. Added some beautiful red and white bakers twine, Tim Holtz baseboard sentiment and mirrored stars.
