Layered Flakes...

Happy Monday,

Firstly thankyou for all the wonderful Birthday wishes yesterday I had  a very relaxing day off so its back to the girndstone now!  Todays card is made using the snowflake lattice background.


















I cut the die out in a light blue a navy blue and white ( all Linen Card from Crafts Too)  I then layered them rotating the die each time.

I then added the white snowflakes over the top.
















For the backing I cut squares of the three colours and added a different square in a lattice pattern behind each snowflake to give the patchwork feel.

I finished with mats and layers to make the panel into an 8"x8" card and added stick on crystals in the corners and points of all the snowflakes.


Enjoy...
