I applied gesso to an old book page for my bg. The snowflakes were made using a homemade stencil and embossing paste. I sprinkled fine glitter on top of them. I added some liquid pearls for added snow. In addition to the MIX challenge this is for Linda's WT season challenge. You're probably thinking that surely winter can't be my favorite season. Well I have some qualifiers. This will be a Christmas card and I love Christmas..I also love the change of seasons we have here in MN..therefore winter can be considered one of my favorite seasons ;)

I would love winter myself if it snowed pearls!
Really, though, this is adorable. Leaving so much white would be a hard thing for me to do, but you've cleverly made it intrinsic to the theme of the card itself.

I love the wonderful ice rink you created for your darling lamb and what great snowflakes you added. I need to try doing a gesso BG oh how it creates beautiful cards. Super card Polly!
