I ran across some Pearl embossing powder that I forgot I had and thought it would be perfect for snowflakes. I decided to ink up my embossing folder with VersaMark, run it through my Cuttlebug, and then use the pearl powder on it. To make some snowflakes stand out, I cut three from SSS out of pearl vellum and layered them 3 high. I wanted to just use the vellum but it got lost on the background. Then my usual dilemma. What to do for a sentiment? I have to have something I would actually send to someone and not cover too much of the card. I thought this "rejoice" from SSS, embossed in Liquid Platinum on regular vellum filled the bill perfectly - and made it fit the Merry Monday Christmas challenge.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you're keeping warm if you are in the area of bitterly cold wind chills. Now I know why bears hibernate. ;)
