Snow scene...

...and night sky.

A short while ago, Andy over on the Pinnacles blog made a 'white on white' embossed Christmas card that I loved.

I have had a play and here is my take on the design that he produced...





I used the EK border punch of the trees along the top edge of the white base card and then I embossed the body of the front of the card with my Cuttlebug 'Snowflake' embossing folder. A sheet of A4 blue mirricard was folded in half to create an A5 card and I used the white embossed card as a wrap. Peel-off snowflakes were scattered over the blue to create the look of snow against the night sky and a few gems were added to the embossed snowflakes. The sentiment was embossed on a small piece of the mirricard using one of the folders from the Sizzix embossing set - Christmas 2 and I used the tree border punch along the top edge.

I still can't get to grips with photographing shiny or embossed surfaces but I hope you get the idea LOL I was rather pleased with the finished card............
