Terrific challenge Pam. I'll have to wait to upload my card a little later. (Photoshop problems - I got some cards edited, then everything came to a screeching halt. I love computers!

As soon as I read the description, I knew exactly what I was going to do. I had to find a big enough square envelope before I cut my cardstock (so I knew how big to make my card. Here is my Single Snowflake.

I didn't have any shimmer mist here, so I used rhinestones. Still shiny!

Thanks for a sweet and soft challenge! I'm so lucky to live in the mountains and nature inspires me everyday! Here's my card....with a bit of Flower Soft for snow and some Pearls for that bling! ;)

Pam, that quote works really well to be inspired by a lot of different things!
Thanks for the challenge. I was inspired by the word "snowflake". I'm glad you challenged us to use glitter, because I don't often pull that out, but it added some nice things to this card.

I'm having SCS problems. First, I can't get to the gallery pages or to my own gallery except by round about ways. I get a message "cannot connect." Then, I posted in this thread about the card I uploaded for this challenge. It came up, but within a half hour it was gone. I can't find it anywhere. I know I posted it to this thread. Some days I wonder why I love computers so much. :-/

I can't remember what I said in the first post, but here are my hiding angels - again.

Thanks Pam for a terrific challenge.

Angels In the moonlit snow

I used iridescent Ice Embossing Powder for the falling snow, but you can't see it sparkle at all in the photo.

I used the Quote from the First Post on the card.

I loved this quote. I used the idea of angels walking in the breeze so used my Tilda in Summer Breeze from the days when she had wings (why doesn't she have wings anymore?)

Oh, great quote with lots of possibilities for inspiration. Since I seem to be in holiday mode for this VSN mini, I went with Christmas Angels. Thanks for the challenge.

I love this quote, too! My first thoughts went to another Medallion card, used like a snowflake...but the one I made was mostly someone else's idea...when looking for a stamp for another card, I found this chair and my thoughts went to sitting in this chair to enjoy the sounds and sights of nature.

Hi, I just updated my card for this challenge. I've added the measurements for those texturized, coloured squares and gave the particulars of the steps taken to make the card. Since I was making a number of these cards, I decided to take a few shortcuts. Again, here's the card, description of which should update shortly.

Thanks for that additional description. I have an old-fashioned office paper cutter (guillotine type) that I use sometimes. It has 16th marks so would work well for chopping textured paper.
