Winter Wishes ACK - Part 4

6 more cards today, plus the 15 cards already made, brings the total cards from this Winter Wishes Artful Card Kit (ACK - HOTP) to 21.

Card #16 (above): The embossed background (A2 Snowflake Background by Darice) really sets off this set of embellishments from the ACK.  The blue paper is also from the kit.  The stamped message is from a Snowman Small Stamp set (HOTP).

Inside:

Inside are more embellishments & paper from the kit.  The stamped image is from one of Mom's sets.

Card #17:

The plaid paper and blue paper are from the kit - along with the white frame.  The snowman is a die cut from Mr. & Mrs. Snowman set (Spellbinders).  The pink & white are from my stash. The sentiment is stamped using a HOTP stamp from a bulk kit I got.

Inside:

Another strip of the pink & another die cut from the kit (stamped with the same stamp used on the last card) complete the inside.

Card #18:

The background for this card started out as a "failed" embossed piece where I had inked the embossing folder before embossing the card stock (Framed Petite Labels 5x7 M-Bossabilities from Spellbinders) - only to have it crack through in places.  It made a great base for this card, though.  The border, focal, and most of the elements are from the kit.  The sentiment was cut with a Gemini cutting die set called Winter Wonderland.

Inside:

Inside are more of the same - plus a scrap of paper from the kit & a stamped message (one of Mom's stamps).

Card #19:

Once again, most of the elements are from the kit.  The die cuts are cut from scraps of purple & white card stock that I had in my stash.  The ornament was a die from 3 Lacy Christmas Ornaments from Paper Artist (HOTP).  The sentiment was from a Tim Holtz set called Happy Holidays Script (Sizzix).

Inside:

On the inside, narrow strips of scrap purple from my stash helps to pull together the patterned scraps from the kit.

Card #20:

Once again most elements are from the kit.  The exception is the stamped greeting (HOTP bulk stamp set).  

Inside:

The stamp (from the same set as outside) is the only thing on the inside that didn't come in the kit.

Card #21:

All I had left at this point was scraps of paper, a label cutout & a button die cut.  I cobbled them together with some snowflakes from my stash to create one final card.  The large purple snowflake on the white background was die cut using a Spellbinders Cut Fold Tuck Snowflake die.

Inside:


 
Inside is simply more of the same.
