Since this is "black tie" week at Dynamic Duos there is also a "dessert" option to make your card a Christmas card. I decided to include the dessert option in my card today. I pulled out my MFT Jumbo Snowflake Die-namics and die cut my snowflake from SU!'s Smoky Slate cardstock. A large silver sequin with a rhinestone center was added to the snowflake. Having an angled piece on your card front seems to be all the rage now and so I gave that a try. I was able to make pretty even cuts, but I am definitely getting the brand new PTI Tipped Top die set... it will make cutting angled pieces so much easier!! I stamped the sentiment from MFT's Seasonal Sentiments using black ink. After adhering the snowflake to the angled piece and then adhering that piece to the card front I added a few grey and black sequins to finish things off.
Thanks for stopping by...

Fantastic Rosemary!
Love how you alternated the sequin colours, based on the background. And of course the whole design is gorgeous! Thanks for linking up with Dynamic Duos this week.
What a wonderful interpretation of the challenge, love it
Well ,this worked perfectly with those colors ...who knew!
Love the slanted paper ...not sure how it's done but I like it.
Thanks so much for choosing my card with triangles Rosemary.
The colors add to the drama of this card. Not your typical Christmas colors but that card really stands out. So pretty.
WOWZY! Have never seen a 'black-tie' christmas card before but I am loving it!
Strikingly beautiful card, Rosemary! I love how you angled your panel and your snowflake is gorgeous!
WOW, Rosemary, this is STRIKING!
Love the design & that fabulous snowflake.
Hope you have more beautiful days soon. Can you believe we were at 90 degrees on Sunday? Our fall & winter temperatures fluctuate so much. We can be at 40 one day & 90 the next. I'm not complaining, the fall & winter months are my favorite seasons.
This is gorgeous. I love all that extra detail you added to it. The slanted layer is cute! Thanks for joining us at the Dynamic Duos.
Congrats on the HM at DD--well-deserved!
Love your card - the big silver snowflake, the tilted panel - perfection!
