Personally, I LOVE winter! Yep, even snow! But, for some people, winter means “the blues”. Well, here’s a little card to celebrate the “winter blues”.

“Winter Cheer” is stamped in White Opaque Stazon on acetate. The “swirl” is stamped on blue cardstock in Refelction Palette ink. (Both images are from The Angel Company stamp set “Snow Much Fun”.)

I used my ScorPal to score the Pop Rockz striped cardstock to create the flap on the left, and adhered the acetate. After punching a hole through both layers, I spread the prongs of the snowflake brad to catch the ribbon before I threaded it through the hole. I flattened the prongs with my eyelet hammer and then adhered the blue cardstock piece.

You can’t see it in the photo, but I applied Crystal Stickles Glitter Glue to the snowflake brad.

Here’s the inside of the card. You can see how the clear acetate piece is sandwiched between the blue and the striped cardstocks. Putting the blue cardstock on after attaching the brad gives the card a nice finished look.

You can also see where I stamped a partial image of the “swirl” to add a little interest.

I stamped the same “swirl” on the back of the card for continuity. This is a simple card that sure makes the “blues” fun!
