This is my card for the SCS Fan Club February Christmas challenge of "red" where you can use red flowers, embellishments, accents, ribbon, cardstock - anything you like.
Now, my camera HATES photographing red - it never comes out the right colour for some reason, so I went for a card that had some red in it and accented it with red rhinestones rather than using cardstock or papers with lots of red. If you are a Fan Club member, you can read more about the challenge at this link here: February 2014 Christmas Challenge~~Red, Red and more Red~~ by Twinshappy at Splitcoaststampers
The papertole (or decoupage if you are in the UK) image and sentiment that I used - called 'Somebunny to Love' by artist Adam Pescott - came free with the UK Magazine Quick Cards Made Easy September 2013 edition. The set has quite a few images so you can make multiples of the same design and I think they are so sweet. And bonus that they were diecut too: although I did trim around the edges more because I thought the finished result would look better. The designer papers are from Lili of the Valley from their Frosty Christmas pad.
The snowflakes were diecut and I glued down just the centres and bent up the pointy bits (sorry, I don't know what they are called LOL! If you know, please enlighten me!) a little to give the snowflakes some dimension then added red rhinestones to the centres. The large snowflake is by Simon Says Stamp and the small ones are by Impression Obsession.

Love your little scene! Looks a bit like a snow globe! The dimension you gave your various elements is marvellous and I love the overall blue with accents of red. Super sweet card!
