Little Winter Bird

 Ever had a sheet of paper and you where like OMG I am so sick of looking at this sheet I have now idea how I'll ever use it well this was one of them it's an old BG sheet I've had forever and finally figured out how to make it into something I love. For those interested here are the steps
1. Used a stencil , darkened the inside with a blue and dark colours for around the image 
2. Stamped some snowflakes on the page used a WOW embossing (White Super Fine ) and then embossed the edges with Frantage. (Heat Paper on Underside)
3 Added in Glitter Glue around the showing parts of the star 
So here is the Finished Card I  love how it turned out
Using an Image for Limited Runs  Using Winter Chickadee Isn't he a cutie

  1. Wonderful card Nikki! I have the same problem most days :D. I actually like the card before you added the fab image with just the star as the focal point. So that's two card designs in one. Have a great day. Debra x

  18. Hi Nikki,
    I admire your dedication; I had this situation a few years back when I found a whole pile of papers I didn't like much anymore in my stash...in the trashbin they all went, LOL. Clever to cover it up with frantage and your card turned out very cool with the star. Thanks for playing Christmas Tic-Tac-Toe with LLC.
