The day didn't start off right for me, it's been from the cat ripping the screen to the couch, to the carpet. Anyways, it should get better tonight, my son is in a school play and he's got a leading part as a reindeer. This card was a challenge today inspite of everything else. I included SC202 as the layout. I just love these colors together. I started out by stamping the image onto WW c/s with black ink. I colored with Prismacolor pencils, mineral spirits, and blending stumps. Once it was colored, I used 2-way glue for the horn, halos, red part of candy cane, and the wings on the angel with clear embossing powder. I then added a little bit of Diamond Dust to the wings as well. I added liquid appligue to the outline of the snow and used the Diamond Dust for the ground too. I used the CB scallop squares for the white squares and used the CB snowflake folder on these as well. I stamped the sentiment and cut out free hand and mounted. I added gold ribbon to finish along with the gold pearls on the corners. I had fun making this card in the colors that were chosen. Let me know what you think? Thanks Emily for the colors and Roxy for the Sketch! TFL! Stay warm!

This is totally adorable!! My little brother used to blast his trumpet at me when we were kids...that worked till I switched from flute to piccolo and the piccolo was louder than his trumpet!
