Winter...Finally!


No, I am not WISHING for winter and it has NOT finally come...but I DID start this "wintery" card before Christmas and just got to finishing it last night.

I saw this card (that is posted to the left) on Splitcoast (in Dec?) and loved the beautiful simplicity of it, so I cased it and made my own version. She used a cuttlebug (if I remember correctly) to do the embossing. Unfortunately, I don't have one, so I did my dry embossing (the snowflakes) the old fashioned way once again-with a stylus and a stencil.
I DO love how it turned out though. I love the simplicity of it. I actually tried adding some of that frayed looking yarn down the spine of the card, but liked it better this way. I think it is much prettier in person, so if you want to come on over...LOL

Anyway...at least I can check it off of my "projects to finish" list. :)
