This card came from a unique inspiration source. My MOM! You need to read my blog post to hear about how this card came to be.
I am using one of ODBD December releases called Peace and Joy. Now, while this set does come with Christmas sentiments, I really believe snowflakes can be used at other times during the year. I chose not to put a sentiment on this one yet.
I stamped the background paper using both of the snowflakes that come in this set. I have more information and close up pictures of that on my blog post.

Your mom is beautiful!! That's a neat story how you found your inspiration from her sweater. Always an artist and a stamper getting inspiration from things around you. Your card is beautiful, elegant, and classy. It looks like your mother may be those things as well. Thanks for sharing your work, and your story. - By the way, I like your whole card but really love the silver cord in your sheer ribbon, a very nice touch.
