One of my dreams in life is to go somewhere in the northern hemisphere and have a white Christmas. Not that I'm big into snow and cold, but I just love the whole "package" that seems to come with a wintery Christmas. This card was inspired by that ideal and the colouring I chose came from the beautiful ribbon I picked up at our local $2 shop.
I've used the pine tree from Lovely as a Tree and embossed it in silver. Then I added some puff paint to make snow sitting on the branches and at the base of the tree. I sponged the edges of the night of navy cardstock with whisper white ink and I love this effect! The white card behind the image was embossed with snowflake shapes and mounted on silver, and my sentiment comes from the wonderful hostess set, Best Yet.

Indeed I do like it Kez. I am a sucker for anything with a bit of C'bugging...but the rest of the card is FAb too ;)!! The sponged white ink in the navy card is a beautiful effect and gives it a 'Doris Day" kinda feel. Gotta love those $2 shop ribbons dontcha!!!
