This week for our CCEE challenge, we had to create a "Winter-themed" suspension card. I thought these snowflake dies from Spellbinders (Snowflake Wonder) would make the perfect suspended object so I went from there.
I actually love how this turned out (I hardly ever say that either!) but wait till you see the neat shadows in the next picture and then you will understand why!
I used my Circle nestabilities to create the holes in the top layers. I layered the die cut (and embossed) snowflakes and adhered the floss inside the flakes. The white layer is embossed with the Swiss Dots embossing folder.
The sentiment is from Rupa Shevede's set The Magic of Christmas by Gina K Designs. I love the font of this!
Of course I added some rhinestone bling to this---kind of helped make it more magical!
<------I LOVE this picture. Look at the cool shadow that appears inside the card from the suspended snowflake. Yeppers--THAT is why I love this card so muchly!
You can find the awesome snowflake Spellbinders dies and the Cuttlebug embossing folder at Stamper's Dream Store!
Materials used: Stamps-The Magic of Christmas (Rupa Shevde for Gina K Designs); ink-Blue Bayau (SU!); cardstock- white, soft sky, blue bayau (SU!); Swiss dots embossing folder (Provocraft); Cuttlebug (Provocraft); Snowflake Wonder dies (Spellbinders); rhinestones (Hero Arts); floss; Scor-Tape (Scor-Pal); Circle and scalloped circle Nestability dies (Spellbinders).
You can check out all the other CCEEers suspension cards here! Hope you will play along!

Cammie, this is totally off the subject but I am looking for the instructions for the Chap Stick (Lip Balm Holder) Can't locate it in all my stuff and I thought I had gotten it from your Site? Do you have it?
Thanks Leslie

WOW! Simply stunning. However, I have a technical question. You suspended it with the floss? Where did you hide the ends of the floss?
It is absolutely beautiful!
