Let it Snow

This week, I'm sharing a tag that I made using the brand new Artistic Outpost release Christmas Chalk.  I had such a great time working with this new set from Artistic Outpost.  Here I started with a jumbo tag and cut a piece of black card stock to fit over it.  The solid white snowflakes were made using Wendy Vecchi's white embossing paste.  I created my own snowflake stencil by cutting Tim Holtz's mask product with the mini snowflake movers and shapers dies.  The flourish is white chipboard that I spread Glossy Accents on and then sprinkled on chunky glitter.  The icicles at the top, which are white CS embossed with a TH texture fade and trimmed out, also had glitter applied in the same method.

I ran a border down the left side made with the Wendy Vecchi Art Parts Scallop Trim.  I painted them black with distress paint and when dry, rubbed white craft ink over it with my finger.  I used Idea-ology Alpha Parts to spell out Let it Snow, rubbing white craft ink over them too.  Then I couldn't get the white craft ink to dry on the Alpha Parts so I ended up (don't laugh) painting it over with clear nail polish - LOL (okay, go ahead and laugh, but it worked great)!

That's it for this week's make.  Thank so much for stoppiing by.
