Now on to my card details:

So today I had fun playing! I used the Tues. Trigger over on Moxie Fab World, for my inspiration, which was this yummy gingerbread snowflake cookie!

I used the big snowflake stamp and matching die cut from Our Daily Bread designs "Peace and Joy" set. I stamped it on SU! Soft Suede with white Craft ink and heat embossed in Stampendous White embossing powder. I cut it out with the custom die, then cut the largest snowflake from the Spellbinder's Snowflake Pendant from soft suede. My card base is soft suede, then Gina K Pure Luxury White embossed with a Cuttlebug folder from the Winter Wonderland collection. For my sentiment I stamped using Memento Rick Cocoa Ink and cut with a SB ribbon trio tag, cutting one side shorter to remove the ribbon slot. I added a snippet of ribbon and a snowflake brad. Easy peasy and easily reproducible in mass if you are still looking for quick ideas for those holiday cards!
