Blue Baubles

Over at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown it's a colour challenge this week, with a wintery white, black and a splash of blue theme. Pop on over and look at the other fantastic cards from the DT,   (as if you need any further encouragement)!



 The Festive Branch stamp I have used for my card was given to me by another member of the DT, Jacqueline, last year, and whilst it may have been around for a few years it's still really one of my favourites. I stamped the image and then heat embossed with black sparkly embossing powder.
I used liquid pearls to make snowflakes, and the splash of blue is added by the sentiment and some little fabric butterflies that come from a ribbon of rainbow coloured butterflies- I just snipped off the blue ones. The Whisper White cardstock is mounted onto some black and white Papermania card, and I've used a pale blue card blank.  Someone also gave me the roll of black satin ribbon and it's been so useful! Here, I've just tied a simple bow and used a glue dot to stick in on the corner of my card.
