Stampin' Up Festive Flurry Recessed technique card

I wanted to share this card with you that I made using the Festive Flurry Stamp set and Framelit. When people ask me why I like Stampin' Up's products, to me this is a great example. The Festive Flurry Stamp set and Framelit coordinate, and who doesn't love that!! :)) This is such a cool technique I think, and honestly this set makes its easy! We made this card in one of my classes and to me it's a WOW!!

So first I layered the card, each layer 1/4" smaller. On the Whisper White, I simply used the Festive Flurry Framelit and placed it to the side of my paper and cut it out. This allows the background paper to "peak" through. When I cut this snowflake out, I actually used the next size up snowflake, to get that effect. The snowflake that is stamped I then used the snowflake that actually fits perfectly with the stamped image.

Here's a closer look:

Don't you love it? When you first see it, you're like how did she do that? My tip on this card is to BE CAREFUL when cutting out your larger snowflake so you have room on your card's edge! (wonder how I know that???) :)

Hope you give this a try!! With all the Framelits and coordinating stamp sets, I think the possibilities are endless using this technique!
