A Snowflake Resist

I saw this Beautiful card by Lesley at Always Playing with Paper and just had to recreate it.

It uses an Emboss Resist Technique. Sound hard? It truly isn't. It's just a few short steps. First, you stamp and heat emboss your snowflakes. I used Versamark & White Embossing Powder. Secondly, you stamp over your embossed snowflakes. I used the large French Script stamp. Thirdly, once that dries, you sponge around the snowflakes. This gives the card such great dimension.

If you've never tried an Emboss Resist, live on the edge and give it a try...you won't regret it!

Thanks for stopping by.

This is the second coaster design that I'm offering for an upcoming Tile/Coaster Class. My other design is based on the Season of Friendship Stamp Set and can be found in my previous post.

I wanted to offer a little variety and I thought this new set would be a great option. The images are just fabulous and would appeal to many if you were giving these as a gift set. They are very inexpensive to make and don't require a lot of supplies. How nice is that?
I've provided detailed instructions on making these tiles here. Give them a try...you'll love them!

Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for stopping by!
