This is for WT303 to use some form of silver on our project. I have had this silver lined satin ribbon for twenty five years when I had my own little floral and craft business called Kittie's Kreations. It is a 100 yard bolt and I'm sure I will never use it all. It instantly came to mind when I saw the challenge this morning. I had very little silver EP and had to pour it on over and over to get full coverage on the trees. I think there was about 1/4 teaspoon in my container. Note to self...get more silver ep. I thought I would make one more winter snow and tree scene with white on white and making the trees silver and the ground and sky area gray. I used a mask cut with deckle scissors and a sponge to create the slight ground lines and a round mask for the moon. I put a small band of dazzling diamond glitter arround the inside frame mat and also little bits on the snow ground lines. The sparkle is hard to see in the photo. Actually, this was a very hard project to photograph. The silver trees created a shine and I had to move the lights around several times to get a photo that showed a little of the glitter sparkle and not too much of the silver shine. The card is actually pure white but looks gray in the photo.

Wow - beautiful ribbon and so worth having kept all those years. There may be no green in this, but it still jumped out of the gallery as one of your lovely winter snow-scenes.
