I started by stamping a snowflake with Versamark a couple of times, using the freebie Chocolate baroque snowflake from a recent copy of Craft Stamper, embossing it with an interference blue EP. I then used a couple of different blue shades of Paris Trunk dye inks for shading the background, then added overstamping with other CB snowflake stamps from different sets using the same coloured inks.
I added the sentiment from one of the new CB clear Christmas sentiment stamps embossed in a blue metallic EP and finished off with a flourish cut from deep blue mirri card and some blue gems dotted around.
The Christmas preparations are coming on apace now. I have Christmas cup cakes to make today for a party tomorrow evening, my little tree is finally decorated and I am beginning for feel more festive and almost relaxed!!! I hope your preparations are going smoothly.
Thanks for popping by!

Sounds like you're much more organized than I am. Very quiet here - R off to Cardiff to get his glasses mended! Love the blue mirri with the crisp whites & brilliant use of pre-cut card base......... Have a lovely weekend with the party etc......... & glad to hear you're getting more relaxed!
