Think Snow...Sorta

Good morning, and happy Saturday!  Here is the Utah Diva's sketch for October 19, UDISC263.  You can find all of the cards and designers here.

This sketch really had me stumped.  Once I started putting the elements together,  I rotated it to a horizontal format and this is what resulted.  It just did not want to work vertically.  (Am I the only one who has cards "talk" to me?)

Details ~

• Paper ~ Whisper White, Silver glimmer paper
• Accessories ~ Northern Flurry Embossing Folder,  Expressions thinlets dies, Big Shot

I embossed the top layer two times.  (Since this folder is 5 3/4", not 6 3/8" like the newer ones, I could send it through width wise and get the large snowflake on the layer twice by rotating the card stock.)  Then I cut the "Merry" with the silver glimmer paper, using a layer of waxed paper to ease the removal from the die.  What do you think?  I wish you could see it in real life.  It has so much sparkle!  Maybe I should add a couple of rhinestones...
