Here is my card for the MIM challenge this week for Papertrey Ink. This was harder than it looks to create. It was kind of hard to lay out all the elements because the card front doesn't stay closed flat. I made two so I could lay out one and hold it in place with my scissors, and then put together the other one. I took all of Danielle's elements and put a wintery ice skating theme to it. I like the way it turned out. What do you think? Oops, I just saw that I forgot the silver on the skate blade. I will fix that and hopefully repost the new photo. All my shimmery elements get lost in the photo. I have shimmer snowflakes stamped on the vellum that are very pretty. The silver shimmer paper and white shimmer paper for the snowflakes add a subtle touch too. It is very wintery and icy looking.
Stamps: On Ice, Snowflake Serenade (on the vellum strip)
Paper: Aqua mist and Hawaiian Shores prints, soft stone (card base), shimmer white, white, vellum card stock, silver shimmer
Inks: black, illuminate versa mark (snowflakes on vellum)
Other: half and half dies, Martha Stewart snowflake punch, pool party twine, festive flurries dies (SU!)
(Here is the updated photo. It helps balance the silver elements. It is the rule of 3's)
