Christmas with Snowflakes and Gold Bling!

Here are a couple of cards from my "To Do" stash, I made from a card kit I bought from Daralee Peterson and Luci Kirschenbaum back in the fall of 2017.  I'm still working on my unfinished card kits, and with these two completed, I only have ONE more!  


I embellished a bit on the original card designs, thus enlarging each card to a size I favor more, plus these additional modifications:  


On Card #1, I added a white and gold foil patterned dsp mat layer and a sponged gold metallic mat layer (outer edges only that show), plus I did not offset my snowflake to the right as much; therefore more snowflake embossing was included.  See the finished card below.


 On Card #2, I added a Gold Glimmer mat layer, sponged my snowflake and distressed my sentiment banner with gold metallic ink.  See the finished card below.
