Snowflake Thank You Card


What better way to say thank you for your Christmas gifts than a handmade sparkly snowflake card.
I like to thank my friends and family right away for the gifts they gave me over the holidays. If I wait too long after Christmas I tend to send them out too late or forget all together.
I used glittery and shimmery papers for this card to reflect the way snow glistens and shines in the sun. The foam snowflakes are only attached in the center to give the illusion they have just landed. The font is called Respective, and can be found here.
For the glittering snowflakes, I used foam table scatter that I found at the Dollar Tree. This is a great find if you make cards in bulk. There are 60 pieces in a bag so I can produce about 30 cards from one package of snowflakes.
Some of the snowflakes are different shapes and sizes so all of the cards will not be exactly the same.

This card was created in under 10 minutes so I have entered it in the 10-Minute Craft Dash over at  CAS-ual Friday and Pretty Pink Posh.

Leave a comment, I would love to see how you create a sparkly snowflake card.
Thanks for visiting Krafty Cards etc. I would love for you to follow...
     

Have a great day!
