Hello again, and welcome! We are loving seeing your amazing cards in the gallery! Ready for a White Christmas Challenge at Inspired By? Believe it or not, I took the longest time figuring out where to go with this theme as there are so many options and the photo is delightful.
I ended up going with a snowy night sky, taking all my inspiration from a lovely card Kristina showed at the Holiday Workshop 2021 at Online Card Classes. Culling a few snowflake stamps from various sets, I made a background and did some inking to add depth of color around the edges. Keeping this simple to make and easy to mail were important.
The Stampin' Up! Snowflake Wishes stamps and dies came to live with me last year, but I am just getting around to using them! With a snowy embossed background, a white heat embossed sentiment, a few rhinestones were the only embellishments.
Be yourself
Have delight in your craft
Make something beautiful!

Getting out these old, and new sets at Christmas time is like dragging out the tree ornaments, right??
LOving all the snowflakes you found to use for your pretty inspired card, Cindy!

Sounds like we all have our "cherished" sets that we refuse to let go of, and why get rid of them when there are new techniques and fun and they feel like a whole new set. This card is stunning, as always, love your blending and your gorgeous sky for all that Christmas snow!!
Such a beautiful card!
I love the contrast of those gorgeous shades of blue and the crisp whites! Beautiful card, Cindy!
Stunning card, Cindy! Love the navy!
This timeless stamp set and dies are lovely whenever you get around to using them. Beautifully shaded background and love the embossing, both wet and dry!
My friend & I were just looking at these snowflakes in the catalog yesterday and I wondered out loud why hadn't I gotten them before? They're so pretty! That dark blue background is incredible! SO pretty with the white snowflakes!
A snowy night sky, a lovely textured background, some jewels and snowflakes in the foreground, and a perfect sediment! What more would want on a beautiful Christmas card?! Thank you, Cindy, for sharing with everyone at NBUS! Hugs, Darnell
