OK, let's take a look at today's two cool projects from our Demo Team swap last month…
Our first card is by Vicki Hinen. She embossed an Endless Wishes snowflake in White Embossing Powder for a focal point on a 3" x 4-3/8" piece of Crumb Cake card stock. She added an eye-catching Rhinestone Jewel in the center of the snowflake. The sentiment is stamped in Real Red ink, then the piece is popped up with Dimensionals onto the card front.
Background Basics—Vicki started with a Real Red card base, folded to open vertically. It's layered with a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Whisper White and a 3-3/4" x 5" piece of Crumb Cake.
I love this! So simple! So cute! I have so much trouble going this simple, but it's just so clean and lovely! Why don't I try this more often?!
- Stamps—Endless Wishes photopolymer
- Ink—VersaMark; Real Red Classic Ink
- Paper—Real Red, Crumb Cake & Whisper White card stock
- Accessories—Rhinestones Jewels, White Embossing Powder
- Tools—Heat Gun, Dimensionals, SNAIL

The second card was created by Carmen DeBruce. She used the Endless Wishes photopolymer set to create a simple & pretty snowflake collage in Pear Pizzazz, Lost Lagoon and Smoky Slate.
Background Basics—Carmen added a 1-1/2" x 5-1/2" strip of All Is Calm Designer Series Paper to a Lost Lagoon card base.
The stamped layer measures 3-1/2 x 4-3/4" and is wrapped with Old Olive Baker's Twine that Carmen tied into a sweet bow. The whole layer is popped up with Dimensionals.
Carmen finished off the card with some scattered Rhinestone Jewels to simulate the falling, sparkly snow.
I think I'll be trying this one at an upcoming private class for some new stampers! They will love it!
