I love the Impression Obsession snowflake, a beautiful design, but what a pain to die cut... even with my Crossover machine. I've also tried it with my Cuttlebug and my Big Shot Pro... Frustrating!!!
I did cut out a bunch. I also made myself an eCut file of the outside edge which I ran through my machine with the die and my tan mat to emboss the design. That worked well, then hit the high points direct to paper with Distress pads. I really liked the way those turned out... but that's for a later post.
These cards use the actual die cut elements... You can see all the details and descriptions by clicking on any image. Enjoy.
