hi there,
I seem to be snowflake obsessed this year so here is another card for the CAS challenge today.
I got out my old trusty rubber mallet to do the bkg. by placing my card front in the eb folder then hitting it with the mallet. It gives such a nice, random emboss. I stamped my sentiment then added the die cut....super easy.
thanks for looking,

thanks for showing me a different way to use that die.....I had tried to 'work' it on a card a while back and I wasn't happy with the results.....this is subtle and classy......fab
you keep making these snowflake cards......I will always know to go to your gallery to be snowflake inspired

Love that EF idea! ....Tim Holtz fade without the Tim! You are the Mistress of the snowflake for sure. That little die is beautiful. Your white on white card is fabulous!

This is SUPER CAS! I love the white on white and the silver cord. I'm having a snowflake obsession this year too, but gee, they are so delicate and pretty.

Wow, Karen - this is an unusual card for you! I love the white on white and the perfect quick design of the card. A friend lent me that die and I'm going to make a couple of cards with it.
