Snowflake

Hi lovely blogging friends.  Hope you are all well and enjoying your weekend.
First of all I would like say a big 'Thank You' for all your lovely well wishes, which mean so much. It was lovely of you to take the time and leave some kind words.
I feel so much better today, and my fingers are no longer swollen. I have to wear support on my knee which may take six to eight weeks to fully recover.
Today I have a snowflake shaped card that was very quick and easy to make.
I cut the card shape and vellum overlay on the Cameo.  My bow is white seam binding from the  Pretty Little Ribbon Shop.  Before I tied the bow I sprayed the whole length of seam binding with iridescent Sparkle & Spray, which gave it a pretty sparkle.  Unfortunately it doesn't show up too well because of the bad light conditions here today.  Finally I stamped 'Snowflakes are Winter's Kisses' with Versamark ink and embossed with silver detail embossing powder.
I'll be back on Monday with a few more projects I've been working on today.
I'm entering my card into the Caravan Challenge #7 - Make It Sparkle!
Thank you for stopping by:)
Enjoy the rest of your weekend xx

Sasha - this is stunning and so delicate. Absolutely love the soft feminine look, and the seam binding is gorgeous.

I am a little behind on my commenting, so I am sorry I missed your Post about the fall - it sounds very painful and I do hope you are feeling much better now.
Take care - {{{hugs}}}, Sylvia xx

Wow this is gorgeous Sasha! Love the snowflake shape:) We had a brilliant day at the Christmas lights and it didn't rain, the sun shone so much we were all squinting at the audience and it was warm enough to sit outside a cafe and watch the world go by! Glad to hear you are feeling better and hope the knee support won't prevent you from looking your best at Christmas:)
