Blue and White Christmas

A glittery blue and white Christmas card today - number 15 towards my cards for Christmas 2018.
I covered a 6 x 6 card blank with blue, non-shed glitter card from a local pound shop. On a sheet of white card, I die cut the two channels using Poppystamp 'Snowflake Channel' and 'Let It Snow Channel' dies, then trimmed the white card down to a little under 6 x 6.  This was attached to the blue glitter card front using Crafter's Companion 'Stick and Stay' adhesive.   I die cut all four Memory Box 'Twilight Snowflakes' from the glitter card and arranged on the top part of the card.  A tiny clear gem over the 'O' of SNOW finished off my card.

Edited to add:  Commenting on some blogs seems to have been really slow recently.  It's worth reading THIS on Brenda's blog to make commenting on your blog easier.

    what very brilliant card and such a lovely design too.
    I love the way you used those wonderful die cuts.
    I wish they did that glitter card in more colours.

    A very clean and crisp design Liz - blues and whites always make for a wintry feel. That glitter card looks great, might have to invest x

    This is such a pretty card with the blue and white combo, Liz. Although I am ready to ditch the snow! Thanks for posting this comment tip. I was having to wait so long for a comment to post and thought it was just my new computer and I didn't know what I was doing. I changed my settings and thank you so much.
