How about some shiny gold snowflakes over a dark, moody DSP?! The gold specks and stars in this Lights Aglow DSP inspired me to layer some black and grays, then top it off with lots of gold! I do love the way the light bounces off the metallic gold. Here’s wishing you a season of hope & light!

This snowflake frame is not difficult to glue to your cardstock layer. Multipurpose Glue is perfect for this with just small drops along the frame and in the wider spots behind snowflakes. If you apply the glue and let it sit for a couple of minutes to become a little less wet, you will avoid the “oozage” without losing the stickiness.

The Finishing Touch:
A gold bow made with Simply Elegant Trim. It’s attached with a Mini Glue Dot.
