Joy to the World

It's been one of those days in the studio where everything I touched seemed to be a mess.  I literally tried six times to foil these Hero Arts Snowflake Pattern.  I even went to watch a video to make sure I had everything lined up correctly, but the foil just wasn't adhering.  Finally after I walked away, I realized I'd been using the laminating foil & not the hot foil (I had even tried three different laminating foils before I figured it out) … uggh.

There was also an embossing powder spill all over my paper cutter, a smashed finger that tore my fingernail, and a new die cut that just refused to cut. 

When I finally got the Spellbinders Opal Glimmer Foil to work on the navy cardstock, I figured I should call it good for tonight with this card.

I die cut the snowflake panel using Hero Arts Rounded Rectangle Infinity Die Cuts, taking inspiration from the TGIF Challenges.

I added the adorable Doodlepops Snow Buddies and the included little snowflake elements.  I added a few more clear gems to fill the sky before mountain on a red glitter card base.  Sentiment is a Tim Holtz Christmas Sticker.

I'm also joining the Celebrate Challenge at the Cut It Up Challenge.  It's also a Christmas Challenge at Little Red Wagon Challenge.
