Choose to Shine


Planning to pen some encouraging words and to tuck this card in with all my son's clean laundry when he returns to college next week. He does choose to shine and is a blessing to many.  So thankful that he loves and follows God.

The sentiment is from Verve's Let It Be collection, and the Kate snowflake die is a new one from Simon Says Stamp.  I cut the snowflake twice using scraps of silver glitter card stock and a piece of white card stock that has "practice colored pencil  swatches" on the back.  The glittery card stock was thick enough that the little openings stayed in, making it easy to layer on the white die cut so the silver would peek through.  Papers are from Harper Finch and the snowflake embossing  folder is a Paper Studio product.
