Speaking of those icy temperatures coming. I have a pretty Stair Stepper Card to show you that also doubles as a great photo card. This project was designed by my SU Demo Susan, so I can't take credit for the design, just the stamping (wink!)
What I really like about this project is that it combines a number of techniques, the Stair Step fold, the mirror image technique and a picture, so it would be perfect for those special people that you want to send a special Christmas picture to. Now ideally it would be a cozy outdoor picture in the snow (didn't have any snow), or in front of the fire place or the Christmas Tree (not up yet)....so you'll just have to do with this picture of my trio on the first day of school this year.
Here's a closer picture of the mirroring. We used acetate to do the double image. And the blue sponging leaving the middle unsponged really gives it a lovely glow.
And the great news, it still fits in an A2 envelope!
Have a great day! See you tomorrow!
