Blue Christmas

Create your base card from Whisper White, and using the Framed Tulips Folder (121809), run it through the Big Shot (113439) to create the frame around the cover. Sponge the frame lightly with Bashful Blue ink. Cut a 3" X 4 1/4" mat from Bashful Blue and attach to the center of the tulip frame. From Whisper White, emboss a 2 3/4" x 4" piece with the Polka Dot Folder (117335) and the Big Shot. Layer this on top of the Bashful Blue. Stamp the image from Four Seasons (Hostess-126830) on to Whisper White with Bashful Blue ink, then punch out with the 2 3/8" Scallop Punch. Punch the center out with the 1" circle punch. Attach the wreath onto the dotted mat with Dimensionals (104430) and add the bird directly to the mat in the center of the wreath. Again using Bashful Blue, stamp your sentiment from Teeny Tiny Wishes (115370). Punch out the sentiment with the Window Punch (119857), punching with the end of the punch close to one end of the sentiment. After you punch it out, place the sentiment in the punch from the bottom and punch the other end close to the sentiment. Trim the straight sides with scissors and mount the sentiment to a regular Bashful Blue window punch. This will create a mat for the sentiment. Add a Pearl Basic Jewel (119247) to each end of the sentiment and add this to your card with dimensionals. Add pearls to the images on the wreath and to the center of the snowflake on the bird.
