This is for WT294 to use some kind of frame on our project. I made a card similar to this last year to send to several family and friends. As I thought about the challenge I remembered how pretty the green trees looked with a completely white base and frame. I changed the size of the card today and added a few white pine sprigs in my white ribbon. I think the embossed layer under the frame adds texture without distracting from the all white card. I love the pop of green trees against all that white and think it looks so peaceful.

Kittie, this is just stunning. I'm staring at this to take in all the subtle textures and layers that add to the interest of the design. But truly the focus is on those lush, deep green evergreens. Beautiful work and into my favs for inspiration.

You must love this time of year ;-), all those lovely snowy tree scenes to create. This one is lovely - peaceful is a perfect description. The Swiss Dots add so much to the snowy feel, for me. I can imagine being in the woods with falling snow.
Hmm - I'd just checked your bow tutorial out earlier in the week for one of the HYCCT challenges, but what I ended up with was not fit to add to the card. I need to practice more .
