This is my second Christmas card in a week..must be Christmas In July! Luckily this card got finished before Christmas, it took me forever and a day! This was my third attempt...I think this is what I did: Stamped snowflake bg image with versamark onto white, then clear embossed...then added distress inks and blue pigment ink....embossed....covered whole think with Versamark 2 more times and embossed. So it got a shiny enamely look that was hard to photograph! That ribbon was a saver from an old gift....you can kind of tell it's been around for awhile...it's a little beat up but I still like it~!

I think this is fantastic! Love the darkened colors you worked with for the bg to the snowflakes! The little bell with 'jingle, jingle' underneath is just too cute!
