Hello and welcome to my blog. We’re CASEing a Christmas Tree Project this week. There’s plenty of inspiration in the new Mini Catalogue, I couldn’t decide which project to CASE. You may have hopped over from Tina’s blog, make sure you visit all the Design Team’s Blogs by clicking on the “next” button at the bottom of the post.
I narrowed it down to the snow globe card on the top left hand side of page 20.
I’ve chosen completely different colours but kept the layout very similar.
My card base is Starry Sky followed by a layer of Basic White that’s been embossed with the Painted Texture Embossing Folder. The trees have been die cut from the Silver Foil Specialty Pack using the Snowman Dies. I’ve added some Snowflake Specialty Vellum behind my trees. When you tilt the vellum in the sun you see a beautiful rainbow effect.
The snow globe base is hand cut from Evening Evergreen card stock and I’ve run it through a retired embossing folder called Pinewood Planks. The sentiment is Silver heat embossed and I’ve added an Orchid Oasis 1/8″ Metallic ribbon bow.
Last week I mentioned we’d been doing some concreting and Marvi was stuck inside all day. I finally let him out into the backyard thinking the concrete was dry as we’d been walking on it……….but I was wrong. Can you see his little paw prints?
This week we’ve been having some glorious sunny winter weather here in Queensland. I found Marvi in the backyard sunning himself on the table so I took a quick picture. He’s looking quite handsome in todays picture.

Totally love the holographic effect of the vellum and silver foil – what a super cool card!
Love all the different embossing effects combined and the use of this vellum was a great choice. Marvi is looking very contented.
What a fun card! The metallic and the rainbow dots look amazing! Was Marvi in the dog (cat)house over the footprints? I must admit, that my whole family wrote their names in the cement last time we had some laid!
Oh I love that specialty vellum, I thought you had used the polkadot die with colour behind it! I love the darker colours you have used as well.
I love this snow globe card. The colours are great and that vellum looks amazing. Whoops re Marvi’s paw prints. A special reminder?
