This card is for Technique Lovers Challenge, TLC185. Great new for me technique, thanks Lynn. I did not have Lumiere so I improvised. I applied Versamark direct to my acetate, then brushed with Pearl Ex in blues and white and sprayed with hair spray then heat set it before embossing with the Cuttlebug Snoflake folder.
The snowman is painted with Twinkling H20s. I put a little dab of stickles in the center of the snowflakes. I embossed the snowflake brads with holographic embossing powder by heating the brads and dipping them in the embossing powder.
There is a lot of sparkle on this card but it doesn't snow much in the photo.

Great colour combo and a very cute stamp! Love the Snowflake EF and the add'l snowflakes are a wonderful touch. Nicely done.
