Pearlescent Snowflakes!

Hey!

I'm back today with another snowflake card, this time I have given them a pearlescent treatment with some perfect pearls...




It's been a while since I 'dusted' the perfect pearls and so I decided to put them to use on a simple snowflake card! I only have 2 colours of pearls, gold & orchid a lovely soft lilac colour. I started out by choosing my sentiment & 3 favourite snowflakes from the set & stamping them in versa mark ink onto some black card. 




Then using a soft paint brush I brushed over the sentiment & smaller snowflakes with the gold perfect pearls & then used the orchid colour over the remainder of the snowflakes. Once I was happy I used a dry baby wipe to wipe off the excess, which also adds a lovely shimmer to the non stamped areas on the card. I also added a few rhinestones to the large & medium snowflakes for a little extra bling - you can never have too much!

That's all from me today, I hope I've inspired you to dig out & give those perfect pearls a dusting! I'll be back tomorrow with more to share, until then thank you for stopping by :)
