Psst-I have a confession to make and an excuse...lol I got home from CT this weekend and went straight to work on this card....It is NOT one of my favorites-I was so exhausted from my trip, I just couldn't get it together I guess. So you could say what you are seeing here is a "faux" card. hehe I didn't glue a thing permanently down-I didn't even take the rhinestones of the plastic!! hahahaha But, on a happier note...I took this baby apart and I redid it and love that version. I will share it with you further down the road.
I just love love love this image from Michelle Perkett called Snow Fairy and I can't wait to feature my revamped card so you can see how marvelous she looks. She is the only pretty thing on this card right now!!! lol
Hope you get to join us in the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge. I love coming to visit and leaving comments.

Faux card? Well, it is gorgeous just the same and I look forward to the new version. Your cards are always fabulous and full of details. This Snow Fairy is a beauty, that is for sure.

Wow - I never heard of a faux card, but you are so creative that it doesn't surprise me that you invented it. That image is beautiful. I like this card, but I can't wait to see the new re-invented one!

She looks like a Russian princess. Wonderfully coloured and I love the sparkle on her muff and collar. Lovely card.

Faux or not - it's a great design. What an adorable red-headed (wink) image and I love the muff she's holding. I haven't seen one of those in years. Awesome job.

Carol, I love how the girl's muff and hat look furry, and the snowflakes do too! Well, I don't think it looks faux (the card that is); it looks like a Bearzi card to me!!
