Letterpress purples - two cool                 

I was experimenting with the pretty Letterpress Winter snowflakes in some different color combinations.  What do you think of this design in Crumb Cake and soft purples? 

Letterpress purples - h          

Background Basics—I started with a Crumb Cake card base, then added a 5-1/8" x 3-7/8" layer of Blackberry Bliss card stock. 
 
Letterpress purples - h3
 
Snowflakes—I stamped the medium Letterpress Winter snowflake three times in Wisteria Wonder on a piece of 5" x 3-3/4" Very Vanilla.  Then I used the small snowflake with Crumb Cake ink to fill up the spaces.  I used the same small stamp to make the snowflake centers in Blackberry Bliss. 
 
Silvery Accents—The large silver sequin from the Frosted Sequins pack makes a lovely, shiny snowflake center. Adhere them with a Glue Dot or Multipurpose Adhesive.
 
Once the stamped layer was adhered to the card base, I added a 5" x 1-1/4" piece of Silver Foil across the bottom to match the sequins and add striking contrast to the softness of the colors.
   
Letterpress purples - v   
 

The vertical card started with the same stamped background and a 3-3/4" x 1-1/4" strip of Silver Foil.

Letterpress purples - v2          

Sweet Sentiment—I finished off both cards with the Letterpress Winter greeting stamped in Blackberry Bliss on a 3" x 1-1/2" piece of Very Vanilla.  I fish-tailed the end to make a sideways banner and popped it up with Dimensionals.

I also added a little Crumb Cake Seam Binding bow to this version for some texture.
