Winter White

Hi everyone!  Hope you're having a good day - we're having some fluffy snowflakes coming down, but it doesn't appear to be accumulating very fast, so I'm just enjoying the show! 

This card was made for 4 challenges; first for the The Moxie Fab World Tuesday Trigger, shown here.  Gorgeous, huh?

                                               

It also qualifies for the Clean and Simple challenge from Paper Play, for the New Beginnings challenge at Simon Says Stamp, and for Really Reasonable Ribbon's Something New challenge (mine is my new Nesties Labels Four).  

I chose 2 cardstocks, one a solid ivory (card base and tag) and the other a creamy parchment (background panel).  I stamped the lace background in Versamark on the parchment, and embossed it with Ranger's Embossing Pearl in silver.  It doesn't appear silver at all to me, but it does give a lovely pearl shimmer. 

Next I stamped my sentiment using antique linen distress ink, and then stamped versamark over the entire label and heat embossed with more of the pearl embossing powder. 

Here's a closeup to show you the lovely pearliness - I think I've found a new favorite embossing powder!

I finished by adding some ivory pearls, an ivory ribbon and a bow tied with a button topped with a larger ivory pearl.

Supplies:  Ivory and cream parchment cardstocks, Hero Arts S5341 Lace Background, AR130 Handwritten Sentiments, Versamark ink and Ranger Embossing Pearl Silver, antique linen distress ink, labels four Nestie, Hero Hues pearls from the Sunshine Mixed Accents pack, ivory ribbon
