Sparkle Flake

Winter in the Pacific Northwest is just right for papercrafting. 
One thinks highly of enjoying the outdoors through the windows rather than from the drivers seat!!!
Although this gold foil design is not 6-sided, it was made with the idea of a snowflake in mind. I used the Kreaxions circle cutter, star template, and punches #907 and #909. 
The gold foil paper and Red music notes are by Craftsmith Co., from last years Christmas release. And not to be neglected is that delightful gold embossing powder from WOW and the little red brad from Recollections.
A tutorial on punching snowflakes will be available on January 14th.

Jingle Trees

Decorating for Christmas with gold foiled paper is so fun!
 The Mint Pink paper pad from Craft Smith offers a great alternative color scheme.
These trees are made from triangles, slit part way down the center and bent towards the ends. The edges are punched with Kreaxions Punch #312.
The tray was a wood grain contact paper number I snatched up at a thrift store. I gave it a few coats of black acrylic paint and then sprinkled it with glitter and powdered milk paint while the final coat was still drying. After sufficient drying time, I knocked the extra powder off and added trees and candles.
Supplies:
Paper:Craftsmith
Yarn and Bells:Stash
Glitter and Paint Powder:Martha Stewart
Punch #312:Kreaxions

Kreaxions punch #312, another Funfare stencil, and silver foiled Craftsmith paper were used to create the second card.
