Hello and welcome to My Favorite Things October Release Rewind! The design team hopes to inspire you with more ideas for those new October products you've purchased and are patiently waiting on to be delivered, or to help you finish up your shopping if you are still on the fence about anything!
My first project today is a wintery, cold snowflake card!
The blue "watercolor" background was created with Copic Various Ink Refills. The details on how to create it are in this blog post. I thought it looked like a cold blizzard, so I glittered up the beautiful smallest Pierced Snowflake Die-namics and popped it up on foam tape. The Merry word is from the new Free with $60 Christmas Tree Cutout Die-namics -- it was die cut out of the Copic background and backed with Smooth White cardstock.
The blue Copic background was die cut with my favorite large stitched panel from Blueprints 13 and the card base is Berrylicous Heavyweight Cardstock.
Next, I have a 5" x 7" framed artwork piece:
The Primitive White background was embossed with the Snowflake Fusion Cover-up Die-namics. Stitched Snow Drifts were added to the bottom. Jellybean Green and Sour Apple Felt was die cut with the Christmas Tree Cutout Die-namics and a gold glitter star (die from Blueprints 13) was added to the top of the tree.
Paver Red Felt was cut with the Peace-Love-Joy Die-namics. The white piece was matted with Paver Red cardstock, then popped up on foam tape over the Jellybean Green cardstock base.

Great projects! That snowflake card is awesome! The blues really do give it a blizzard-y feeling.

Both cards are great, but the watercolor with the snowflake is just breathtaking.
