I've just been itching to CASE Loll, but have had a very busy 4 days! I chose her gorgeous Happy Birthday Frances card, but changed the window opening and used snowflakes instead of flowers. I made the BG panel, using the water stamping tech., which didn't show all that well, but was perfect for this card. The swirls were made with the Memory Box Elegant Scrollwork die, the larger flakes were from Nestabilities dies and the tiny ones from a border punch. I used a sentiment from Papertrey's Peace Be Still set, stamped with fresh snow and embossed with white ep. Some Kaisercraft and Memory Box rhinestones were added to the snowflake centers. Here's Loll's card. Happy Birthday, Frances by Loll Thompson at Splitcoaststampers

Sue, your card is as beautiful as Loll's. I love everything about it and how you used it as a holiday card. I think the water stamping bg is so pretty. TFS

Sue, what a delightful, peaceful and beautiful case! Love that whisper of a snow drift coming in with those pretty lil flakes. Love this!

Sue, this is a beauty!! Love the nestie shape you've used for the frame. Your flourish and snowflakes is perfect for the snowflake water stamping. This card is very "peaceful" ... so that's the perfect sentiment. Love it all!
