These are for Michelle's WTUI challenge this week ~ Easy Does It, easy, reproducible holiday cards. The collage stamping made these come together quite quickly! Wrinkle free distress for the base layer (the first one was a bit more interesting, so I stencilled a little on the second one). Then I stamped everything. There's a white snowflake that's hard to see unless you look at just the right angle. I embossed them and then rubbed some luster rub-ons into the embossed snowflakes, which was the only thing they really took any time...Sponged the edges with walnut stain, added Stickles to the edges and the cone, and that's it.
