This week the Dream Team is playing with a sketch created by Kim as seen at left. Since I have been coming down with some type of lovely flu, I decided to keep my version really simple. The three back panels were run through the Big Shot, with the Snowflakes Background and the Snowsplatter, doing the ink transfer technique of spritzing the ink on the stencil, placing the cardstock panel on top, followed by the embossing mat and two platens. I created a "witches brew" of ink to spritz...mixing the brand new, fabulous, Color Solutions alcohol inks from Dreamweaver Stencils, with some of the Thinner solution, and some of the Iridescent Memories Mists inks in one of those handy-dandy Mini Misters from Ranger. The combo created a beautiful, shimmery, aqua color...love, love, love. I used some glitter paper for the back panel as well as the mat around the focal point square...the Crystal Snowflake. For this, I embossed it in the machine, and then spray-stenciled the snowflake. I added a sweet sentiment from Lizzie Anne Designs (Gourmet Rubber Stamps) from their new "Season's Greetings" set, and some baker's twine and aqua rhinestones. I'm curious to see what the rest of the team has created this week with Kim's sketch, as well as Kim, herself! Come on...let's go take a look. Have some fun yourself, and link it to the Mr. Linky on the Dream It Up! blog. Feeling particularly creative? Get ready for some big news regarding a new design team call for Dreamweaver Stencils!

This is so "cool" in so many ways, and perfect for the snowflake/
splatter stencils. Sorry to hear you're not feeling well. Been there, done that, so please take good care of yourself.
Gorgeous Pam, I just loved the "feel" of this card when I saw it. Hope you feel better soon.
Oooh so nice and wintery! A lovely piece Pam.
This is really beautiful Pam!!!! I just recently acquired some snowflake stencils. I can't wait to get a bit more creative with them!!!
Your card reminds me of the morning a couple of weeks ago, when I opened the front door to take my dog out and it was snowing.....beautiful results!!
