Newton's Nook Designs November Release--Day 2


Hello! Are you ready for Day 2 of Newton's Nook Designs November Release?


Today we're sharing projects with Beautiful Blizzard, a clear stamp set
with gorgeous, ornate snowflakes and sentiments in a "cool" font!
 

And here's my card. 


I chose different sizes of snowflakes and stamped them with Versamark ink
on watercolor paper, then ink distressed with several colors of Distress inks
in ombré fashion. I stamped the sentiment and added three different sizes
of Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear sequins.
