My blog`s Christmas Card challenge for October is Banner and Turquoise. I`m sorry this is late.
I chose a warm turquoise card and found some Christmas designer paper from Best Creation Inc. It features a warm snowflake background with purple glittered snowflakes. It was cut to leave a small border.
I created a banner with the Stampin Up Banner Triple punch. The blue banner is cut to 2 inches wide then the white is 1.5 inches wide. I stamped the greeting with a stamp from Stampin Up - Four the Holidays stamp set. I used the Baja Breeze stamp pad. The two banners were layered and then trimmed to 5 inches long. I adhered it to the card front.
I adhered a 1 inch circle punchie in deep purple to the left of the greeting. I then added a white metal dove brad by making a hole with a push pin for the prongs.

Snowflake Sparkles
I wanted to try coloring an embossing folder then embossing card stock. I've seen a few samples in my web surfing the last few weeks.
I used the Stampin Up Northern Flurry embossing folder and a Night of Navy
Watercolor Crayon on the bumpy side of the folder. I spritzed it and ran it through the Big Shot with Whisper White card stock. The process put the color on the opposite side of what I was wanting because I did not think it through. I used the really nice colored side but the debossed snowflake side. I was amazed at the variety of colors that appeared. I mounted it on Soft Sky card with some wet glue and double sided tape in the corners to help the paper flatten out a bit. I stamped the MC greeting from the Four the Holidays with NofN ink on white. I then cut a piece of NofN card stock and trimmed to the leave a small border. I added rhinestones in the center of 3 snowflakes and on the greeting banner.
