So sorry for the late upload, ladies! I completely lost track of the days. Cathy's sketch was perfect for snowflakes. I wanted a card that looked like it was just found in an attic, so of course lots of distressing here. Ribbon was not working for me, so I went with a strip of muslin instead. TFL!

Lee Ann, I so love the antique vintage look of this card design. Using the muslin as your "ribbon" - perfect! What a lovely idea to layer the vellum over the main panel and then build on top of that - beautiful dimension. The SNSS Snowflake Stamp Set looks wonderful on this card.

Your snowflakes do work perfectly with this sketch, Lee Anne. Love your warm, mellow tones (rather than the icy blues we usually see)......gives a vintage feel. Your snowflakes are beautifully constructed too.

SO pretty..I LOVE all the distressing and that muslin strip is brilliant! The snowflakes are gorgeous and why didn't I think of doing my corner like that..I love the turned back corner on top!
ps-I used stamps on my chicken from Odd Bird Planet,,they are no longer in business. This set allowed one to use the top part and different skirt bottoms to layer...so a lot of masking.
