I made the snowflake background paper using the White Outline Technique (click here for instructions). It's super easy and looks so beautiful when it's done. I used Twinking H2O watercolors to color wash my paper so it has a gorgeous shimmer that doesn't show up in the pictures.
And here's the inside of the card.
Stamps/Images: Snowflakes- SU, Sentiment- SU
Paper: Marco's watercolor paper, White and Teal Cardstock
Ink/Coloring: Teal craft ink embossed with clear EP.
Accessories: Blue Grosgrain Ribbon, White Satin Ribbon, Swarovski Flat Back Crystals, Hardware Ribbon Slide.

Another beauty, Tara! I am definitely thinking of trying this technique. My only concern is do you use your iron on clothes, too? I'm a freak of nature and still iron regularly and I would hate to hurt my iron by crafting with it.
WOW gorgeous creation! Thanks for joining us at Stamp Something!
Nise, Yes I used my regular iron... a very expensive Rowenta and it's fine. Just put two sheets of copy paper down just in case and make sure you have the background paper completely covered. Doesn't hurt the iron at all.
I was never big on ironing but I've lost a lot of weight this year and I notice that the smaller I get, the more I'm ironing. Go figure! lol
WOW!! This is totally gorgeous!! LOVE the colors in the background with your embossed snowflakes!! :) Thanks for joining with us at Stamp Something!!HUGS
