CAS snowflakes

I cannot believe we are almost at the end of April!


Our challenge for you this week at 
52CCT  is to use some of your printed papers. 


For this challenge I used some turquoise printed paper which is sheer like vellum but not quite the same. 
There are several problems with it. It is not easy to attach as, like vellum, glue or adhesive shows through and it also warps and crinkles with wet glue. 
Here, I made a little frame and used a small amount of glossy accents to hold the paper and frame in place. 
For the snowflakes I used paper from the same pack so it matches! I have had it for several years so it's very good to use some of it. 
We look forward to seeing what you dig out from your stash. 

I've actually got time to link to a few challenges today. We have had patchy internet for over a week now but hopefully the connection will last until I get there. It seems to be a difficult problem for the engineers to find. If only we didn't use it for everything!

CrafyHazelnut's Christmas challenge #435 - anything goes
April Rudolf Days Challenge - anything goes
ABC Christmas Challenge - I is for Intricate - intricate patterns on the paper and snowflakes. 

I missed the playground gates by 9 minutes. Lol. 

Thanks for visiting, enjoy your day. x

    J'adore ce papier à flocons Alison, c'est une très jolie idée de lui donner un effet de givre, biz

    Great design for that wobbly but pretty snowflake paper. It is always so hard to adhere this type of paper to a card. You have made a fab choice with this frame to attach it to!

    Lovely card and Thanks for taking part in the April Rudolph Days Challenge.
