Snowflake Easel.

Hi Folks!

Hope you're all ok?  I've been a bit quiet lately as I've had the right hump since coming back from The Lakes and I'm struggling to get my mojo back.  I'll get there, though.

Here's what I've come up with for today's blog post:

And as you can see...it's definitely NOT a square!  Lol.  

I've used a snowflake cutting file from Silhouette, removed all the little fiddly bits in the middle, welded a couple together and cut a spare to make the base...which is cut out of card printed with a Bearly Mine (link over on right) paper.  The white snowflake is the same cutting file in miniature.

I've coloured the image in using my Promarkers as follows:

Cool Grey 1, 3 and 5.
Marine.
Turquoise
Cool Aqua.
Antique Pink
Baby Pink.

I've glittered some snowflakes and the snowflake on Sasha's nos.

And that's it.  A very simple but cute and pretty card.

Hope you like it everyone.

Take care and happy crafting!
