A wonderful site for the Inspiration Challenge! There were many I loved but I was really drawn to THIS. I love the white snowflakes on the deep red background.
My card was pretty easy..I started by white embossing the snowflake onto red card stock then I sponged around the edges w/ Distress inks in various dark reds & finally a little black on the very edges. I also used the Reverse Snowflake die to die cut some white snowflakes & popped them up a little on top.
Thanks so much for looking. Closeups & product links are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Ooh, a beautiful card, Julie, and the mantle scarf was a beauty, also. I like the Black Soot around the edges..makes the brighter reds pop. And, the snowflakes are gorgeous.

Julie, what a wonderful likeness your beautiful card is to the beautiful mantle scarf. The added red ink and a touch of black around the sides of the red cardstock are beautiful. I love the white and white embossed snowflakes!

Absolutely gorgeous Julie! Love the stamp, love the layers of snowflakes you added and love the darkening of the edges, it really brings the eyes to the center focal.

wowie, that red background is divine...i worked at Target for almost 7 years, can't stand the color red anymore, except for orange-y or dark red. Actually I just won't wear red anymore. Ick.
