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, I spared myself the risk of neck injury and just turned my computer on it's side. Maybe you could have downloaded it on it's side and blamed your photographer. It's gorgeous any way you look at it.

Very beautiful. I love how you did the reverse scallops to make those awesome icicles. Did the photographer have to photograph it both ways before you decided which one you were uploading?

WOW! This is a gorgeous card that just makes you look at it! I love the snowflakes and how your small panel opens also. I admire your restraint at keeping it upright, but I confess, I did copy it into my graphics program and rotate it to take it all in! I am in love with Martha's snowflake punch (which I bought a couple of weeks ago). It's the prettiest one I've seen!
