Snowflake Kisses - Coastal Cabana

Snowflake Kisses Bundle - Available starting Sept. 3rd

This weeks monochromatic Insta Hop color is Coastal Cabana. I realize that this would not be a traditional winter card color, but snowflakes is what came to mind when I started planning..... So I chose the Snowflake Kisses bundle that is one of the new Online Exclusives (Available Sept. 3rd). Item # 166023

Snowflake Kisses Bundle - Available starting Sept. 3rd

If I make this card again, I might be tempted to use the blending brush on the back ground die, and keep the snowflakes in the foreground white. This is the first time for me to use this bundle and I totally recommend it! The stamp set is all sentiments, and the dies have several different snowflakes to choose from.
