A big CONGRATS to Susan (One4Joy), the newest Featured Stamper! I've been a fan of Susan's for a long time and I love her wonderful thoughtfulness and quirky style. I confess, it was hard for me to case her, lol. I chose THIS beautiful card to case. So my attempt is as close as my style could get. I kept the same layout and big circle element, but I used different images, different embossing folder and added a bow instead of the felt snowflake border.
I embossed the lovely ornament w/ a sparkly black/green powder onto a shimmery mint green card stock & die cut it w/ the coordinating die. The shimmery dark green card stock was embossed w/ a multi image folder, but I only used one section & moved it around to selectively emboss the same snowflake line three times. I added two die cut mint green borders on top & bottom w/ the greeting stamped on the lower one. The ribbon for the bow was colored w/ Copics to match.
Congrats again, Susan, enjoy your week! It's also on my blog: The Write Stuff

I see you chose to use your favorite color on this ;) . The texture of the embossed bg goes so well with the design on the ornament and your fancy borders just add the perfect finishing touches to this beauty!

this is headed straight to my favorites so I can remember this great way you used your Spellbinder border die on this. I have a few and am experimenting with ways to use them. Loved this idea. Your work is always amazing.
