Snowflake Kisses in Basic Gray

 

Snowflake Kisses Bundle + Soft Waves Embossing Folder

Today's Monochromatic Insta Hop color is Basic Gray.  While planning this card, I envisioned the look of snowflakes swirling on the wind.  I loved layering the snowflake die cuts with vellum.  It really softened the white snowflakes on the Basic Gray.

This card has a little bit of a flirty element between the outer sentiment and the inner sentiment.  (Be sure to check it out )

To create the inner snowflake, I die cut 1 out of the message liner, then added the Basic Gray matte layer behind so that it peeks out.
