Paper Playhouse: Peace {MFTWSC98}

It's time to get sketchy with the MFT Wednesday Stamp Club and sketch 98.

I'm on a Christmas card roll so why stop now? I paired the gorgeous new Jumbo Snowflake Die-namics with Seasonal Sentiments for my card today. This makes card # ??? (I've lost count but I'm up over forty now with a few weeks to go so I'm in good shape card-wise) for Project Christmas 2012.

I used the Jumbo Snowflake Die-namics to cut out Sno Cone felt and I backed the snowflake with Sno Cone cardstock for a little more stability. I used the Rounded Banner STAX Die-namics to cut out the patterned paper from the Basic Grey Aspen Frost collection. The new Snow Drifts Die-namics was perfect for cutting the top edge of the Whip Cream snow, then I embossed it with my Swiss Dots embossing folder. I added a narrow edge of Stickles to the top of the snow for a little sparkle.

I added a big Whip Cream button tied with Hemp Cord for the smaller element and tucked a loopy Hemp Cord bow behind it. The strip of green along the bottom edge of the snow was cut out using the Small Scallop Border Die-namics.

I used the Sentiment Strips Die-namics to cut out the green polka dot paper then stamped "Peace" with Memento Tuxedo Black. I used the small snowflakes from Seasonal Sentiments to stamp the white snowflakes onto the Kraft background, which I layered onto Sno Cone cardstock.

On the inside I stamped another sentiment from Seasonal Sentiments with Jellybean Green ink onto a circle I cut out using the Circle 2 STAX Die-namics. I tied in the snowflake on the front of the card by using the Let it Snowflake Die-namics to cut out the Sno Cone flake.
