Red and White


I think if I made this card again I wouldn't use the gingham ribbon but time has been short lately and I wanted to post a card so I made this card quickly.
First the sketch is from Freshly Made Sketches and I used the Taylored Expression Snowflake background die. I then used one of the new Snowflakes die from Simon Says Stamps but it got lost on the background. So I cut out it three times but I made sure I put doublesided tape on the back of the card before cutting out this meant I didn't have to try and put glue on the back.
To make layering the snowflake easier I placed the snowflake in place then layered the others. It really does help white on white to show up.
I confess the sentiment is a white peel off, my patience and time didn't seem to go as far as stamping.
