Colorado Craft Company recently came out with a beautiful, natural snowflake and die set but right now they are out of my budget range. I thought they looked a lot like the fern dies that I've had for quite a while so I cut 6 pieces from fun foam, trimmed off the leaves at the bases and adhered them to the piece of acrylic. I used a single small leaf and stamped between in the center. It worked well in my We R Memory Keepers stamp positioner with just a bit of tape runner to hold it in place.

Genius! I can say I would never have had such a creative thought. The result of your ingenuity is a stunning card~ aside from the gorgeous snowflake, I love the pale blue background and the snow splatters.
