As much as I hate snow, I love the look of it as long as I'm not in it!! The trees are from Lovely as a Tree and are stamped in olive. I stippled a little yellow to fill them in with radiant pearls. The sky is stippled with bashful blue. The little girl is colored with Prismacolor pencils and sage shadow marker on her boots and then cut out and raised with foam tape. I used liquid applique on her jacket and the snow. The snowflakes are liquid pearls. I love the sparkly ribbon I just got from Pinkhedgehog Paper Crafts. Another SCS! Check her out, she has beautiful ribbon and brads and eyelets in EVERY color.. After I was done, I sprayed the card with glitter spray so it's VERY sparkly.
TFL!!

I'm a little late posting a comment on this... I was checking out High Hope cards today, and while clicking around, I found this.., OMG, this is a piece of artwork.. How did you ever part with it...and I agree about the snow, I hate digging out my car, only to have NYC Sanitation plow it in again

Such a cute card! I love that stamp! It makes you want to sing - **If all the snowflakes were candy bars and milkshakes, oh what a world this would be. I'd go outside with my mouth open wide and say, ah ah uh ah ah uh ah ah uh ah. If all the snowflakes were candy bars and m ilkshaes, oh what a world this would be. ** ;)
