Gretchen Barron: Holiday Sneaky Peek #2 -- Frosty Morning

Hello everyone and Happy Friday! I know, It's August here and hot with extremely high humidity! But indulge me for just a moment, okay? If you live in a climate where you experience cold, snowy, icy winters then you relate to today's post. You know when you wake up on a cold winter morning and the frost hangs heavy on the trees, making your entire world like like a winter wonderland? Those frosted trees are beautiful to look at, for sure! Now don't get me wrong, I hate to drive on the frosted icy streets, but looking at the trees is something to behold! And that's exactly the image that inspired today's card and my second Sneak Peek from the upcoming 2018 Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog (sales period beings September 5th)!

Today's card uses the First Frost Stamp Set, and the Frosted Floral Specialty Designer Series Papers. This paper is absolutely breathtaking, I kid you not! It is possibly the most beautiful paper I've ever seen in my life. Although today's project uses a gray frosty sheet of paper, some of the papers in this collection come alive with beautiful, vibrant colors and floral patterns. They are definitely papers that you will want to use all year long for a variety of occasions! Just stop back in tomorrow to see what I'm talking about! All of the papers in this beautiful collection have a frost, opalescent finish to them. They really do look like they've been frosted with icy elegance!

For this card, I paired the stamp set with the beautiful Foliage Frames Framelit Dies and Stitched Shapes Dies. The colors are Fresh Fig and Gray Granite.
