It is never to early to get started on your holiday cards! With the heat we are currently having, I was content to be in my craft room playing with snowflakes! My card is based on the sketch challenge this week at Freshly Made Sketches–
If you prefer to mass produce your holiday cards, this would be a great sketch to work with. Most of my cards are one of a kind. This one has some added details that are not so clear in the pic. I die cut my snowflake out of white cardstock, covered in Versamark ink and then white embossed. I then repeated twice more. In the end I had a super smooth, glossy snowflake.
