Penny Black Challenge week 176

My latest creation is for the Penny Black Week 176 Challenge. This week it was Snowflakes/Snow and Silver

For my entry I used a standard white card stock for the card base and stamped the Penny black image onto slightly white pearlescent cardstock. I then used silver imbossing powder over the image and heated this.
The Stamp was then mounted onto silver mirricard and attached to the card base.

Ive had the Papermania wax seal Christmas kit for a few years now and Ive never used it. I noticed one of the seals had a snowflake design on it and I thought this wowuld be an ideal oppertunity to finally use it. I melted the wax onto a scrap piece of cardstock and then stamp three wax seals. Once they had set I carefully peeled them from the cardstock and then attached them to the card.

Long time no blog been really busy with house, horse, other assorted pet animals and work so unfortunatly card making has taken a back seat (boo hiss) I have managed to get some time and thought I would have a crack at

Sketch Saturday's week 180 challenge

Heres my entry I used some left over card stock from a class I took at the local craft centre and thought this would be a great excuse to use the card up. The cupcake stamp set is from the Personal Impressions Hi Cupcake stamp set.
