Winter Sparkle Inspiration: Snowflake Sprite Slimline Card by Leigh!

"Winter Sparkle"
Snowflake Sprite Slimline Card 
by Leigh
  
With just one more sleep ‘til Santa’s arrival I’ve got a magical Winter Sparkle slimline card for you today to celebrate the season and the winter solstice featuring my new Snowflake Sprite and one of the wonderful new digi papers from the White Snowflakes Striated Marble digi paper pack!


I digitally painted my new Snowflake Sprite in Adobe Fresco in shades of mint and teal then printed and fussy cut her out with an offset using my Silhouette Cameo 4.


I used Crafter’s Companion Starry Night slimline nesting dies to make my card layers.  The large die panel is cut from frosty blue glitter card and the pretty insert panel is cut from my “Teal” White Snowflakes Striated Marble digi paper pack!  I made the folded slimline card from white cardstock and the mat layer from teal pearlescent cardstock.


I mounted Snowflake Sprite to the card front with foam dots and embellished her snowflake halo, wings and her snowflake dress with Crystal Stickles glitter for even more magical sparkle!


The entire card sparkles with the magic of winter!

Winter Sparkle Inspiration: Poinsettia Pixie Slimline Card by Leigh

❄️ Seasons Greetings Creative Friends ❄️
 
"Poinsettia Pixie"
Christmas Slimline Card
by Leigh
 
I've got a beautiful Winter Sparkle Christmas slimline card for you today featuring my lovely new Poinsettia Pixie and digi paper from the White Snowflakes Striated Marble decorative paper pack!
 
 
I digitally coloured Poinsettia Pixie in Adobe Fresco, printed her out and used my Silhouette Cameo to fussy cut her out with a narrow white offset border.
 

 
I made my slimline card with Crafter's Companion Gemini Christmas Holly and Berries nesting elements dies and cut the holly panel from green glitter cardstock and the inset panel from my lovely Candy Cane White Snowflakes Striated Marble decorative paper printed on white cardstock.
 
 
The Candy Cane White Snowflakes design has striations in bold red as well as a more muted tone for a lovely vintage look which I used here.
 
 
The slimline folded card is made from heavy weight white cardstock and the mat layer from a beautiful pearlescent red cardstock.  To finish I mounted Poinsettia Pixie to the card front with foam pop dots for a touch of elegant dimension.
