Here's a double challenge card that I put together this morning. I think I'll mail this one to myself in December because I absolutely LOVE IT! LOL...Seriously, though, it'll go to someone special.
I started with a Cherry Cobbler card base and spritzed it with my Cherry Cobbler marker. I cut a 3" square of Presto Patterns dsp and sponged it with Crumb Cake and Soft Suede ink and then spritzed it with the Cherry Cobbler marker. Onto it, I added the sentiment panel and Filigree Brad. To glitz it up a bit, I ran my Early Espresso marker around the edges and added some Dazzling Diamonds to the torn edge.
I then crimped a piece of Soft Suede cs and brushed it with my Soft Suede ink pad to dirty it up. Finally, I used my Big Shot and Ovals Bigz Die with Crumb Cake cs and stamped the image with Jet Black StazOn ink. I used Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake, Always Artichoke and Bashful Blue markers to color it and added snow with my Two-Way Glue Pen and Dazzling Diamonds. I highlighted the edges of this panel, too, with my Early Espresso marker, spritzed it with the same marker and added a small Filigree brad to it. It's adhered to the card with Dimensionals.

This is a beautiful card, and all the elements work so well together -- glitter, texture, colors. I love how the filigree brads, which I always associate with flowers, almost turn into snowflakes on this card. Wonderful work!

Just gorgeous. I love your embellishments and other details. Just ordered my Cherry Cobler cardstock and can't wait to get it. I got it to go with this stamp set also.
