for a challenge among a few friends...make a black and white card...no additional colors. when i found this gorgeous embossed white paper, i knew i had to use it. it looks like rich satin irl...it has such a beautiful sheen. the snowflake is embossed and cut out and colored in with stickles, so it really shimmers. in the center of the snowflake i put a mirrored snowflake embellishment i found in the dollar section of michael's.
thanks for looking!

i've had several comment on my cutting of this intricate snowflake. i cheated a little and it works great, especially on black. i cut the flake out around the outside edge, which is time consuming enough. the inner negative spaces i colored with black marker to match the bg paper. so they look cut out, but really aren't. cool cheat, huh?!!
