Merry Monday #115 - White on White

Hello friends.  Playing along with the Merry Monday challenge, and this week we are being asked to make an ALL white Christmas card.  This was a fun challenge, and I ended up using PTI's "Rustic Wreath" die and the "Snowflake Ornament" die from Memory Box.  Take a look:
 

White on white is a bit hard to photograph, but hopefully you can see all the detail.  Here's a closer up shot:


I cut out the Snowflake Ornament 4 times and glued it together, and then covered it in Dazzling Diamonds glitter.  I made it thicker so that the recipient of this card can untie it from the ribbon and use it as an actual Christmas ornament on their tree!  I used a MS punch for the smaller snowflakes to add a little more visual interest.  The sentiment is from the "Rustic Wreath" stamp set from PTI.

You can check out all the other gorgeous white cards and information to play along over at the Merry Monday Blog .


Thanks so much for stopping by today and have a wonderful Tuesday!
