Festive Flurry for CCMC273

It's Thursday and time for a new weekly challenge from Create with Connie and Mary.  This week is a great sketch, take a look.







I love this sketch.  I have yet to do a card with the punched out area, so I was happy to do one for this week's challenge card.  I went with a Festive Flurry card since this is Preview week for the new Create with Connie and Mary Winter Collection 2013.  



I just love when a card comes together easily.  This card was just that, it practically made itself!  Here are the details:

1.  Bermuda Bay for the card base.  A layer of Winter Frost DSP comes next.  I die cut a circle out of the left side with a circle framelit.

2.  Added a strip of Silver Glimmer Paper measuring 1 1/4" x 4 1/4".

3.  Next I die cut a smaller circle of Smokey Slate card stock using a circle framelits.  I stamped a Bermuda Bay snowflake on Whisper White and die cut it with the matching framelit.

4.  Added the snowflake and Smokey Slate circle to the cut out area of the card.

5.  Final step was bling.  I added a beautiful Frosted Finishes Embellishment to the center of the snowflake.  I also added dot of Dazzling Details to each tip of the snowflake.





A very fun and quick card to put together!  I love all the sparkle to it!  I hope you will join me for this week's challenge.  You can find all the details for it at Create with Connie and Mary.  While you are there be sure to check out the beautiful projects they are previewing for the Winter Collection 2013.  They have so many gorgeous ideas to share and the Winter Collection, as with all their collections, is an amazing value.  Here's the details.
