This is my card for today's sketch challenge. This is my story:
1. It was hard not to notice that Roxie did not want us flipping this sketch today.
2. I made this card just like it was intended but after it was all done, everything finished, I made the mistake of turning it on its side!
3. OMG! It is so much cooler on its side! I actually thought long and hard...I so wanted to be a rebel today and load this up in the forbidden flipped view.
4. But Roxie works hard getting these sketches up every week and to honor her...I was a good little stamper.
5. But....let's cheat just a little....do your neck exercises this morning and turn you head as far as you possibly can and look at my card flipped..The bottom part looks like icicles. It's cooler huh.
6. When I mail this off to someone, you know what direction I am gonna write in! Shh..don't tell Rox!
Oh yeah, the part the snowflake is on is hunter green, it looks black here.

Well, here's a card to get my heart started. You are very clever Cindy...love especially the way you cut a notch in the panel, and made the fron panel a little card. Thanks for the crick in my neck...but it's worth it. I won't tell Roxie! Have a great day. Anne.

Wonderful card! Love the high contrast, and aren't you the clever girl to make icicles along the what's supposed to be the bottom! Well, it's your card, and you can flip it if you wanna! It is awesome from any direction!

Cindy this is gorgeous, on it's side, right side up, upside down. Thanks for having me get my neck exercises done with this morning, wondering when I was going to do them.
I love your snowflakes, what a wonderful creation!!!

You're not a rebel; you're an imp! (remember that word?) LOL!
Love, love, love this beautiful card no matter what direction I look at it.....it's even beautiful upside down! I did ALL the neck exercises, thank you very much. And, since I am a game player and not a rebel like you, I can't promise that I won't tell Rox. LOL! Lord, I love teasing you!

Wonderful card! I love your story, as usual. Go ahead and be a rebel. We'll all be good and wish we had the nerve to rebel! I love your scallopped edges and the reverse scallop.
