So excited to case one of Sallie's gorgeous winter scenes today! Here is her beauty: *CC350 TLC352 Trees by hobbydujour at Splitcoaststampers First I sponged the sky with navy, eggplant & not quite navy, I stamped the trees in Navy, then used a toothbrush to add the snow using acrylic white paint. I then painted some sparkly glitter glue to the trees. So this qualifies for a girl's best friend-Dazzling sparkly diamonds! Also, the July gallery theme is Duets. I don't know about you, but to me snow and trees just seem to go together! Thanks for stopping by today! ~Roberta

Roberta, this is GORGEOUS...and much much prettier than my original. Love your more intense color and the bit of sparkle like falling snow has. Great job with the toothbrush. : ) Thank you for thinking enough of my card to want to CASE it. I appreciate it...and YOU.

This just popped straight into my faves! The background you created is beautiful, and I can just feel the silent, peacefulness of falling snow in the forest.
