Dynamic Duos 24 and Unscripted Sketches 180

The color challenge this week at Dynamic Duos is so pretty and after seeing the awesome samples from the design team I knew that I wanted to participate.  The sketch at Unscripted Sketches gave me some ideas for snowflakes, of all things!



I think I've got snowflakes on the brain because I've been thinking about Christmas cards lately and I usually like to throw in a snowflake or two when I'm making cards for my holiday stash.  This card uses the retired stamp set Snow Burst, which has kind of modern, funky looking snowflakes.  I fussed for a ridiculous amount of time on what do for a bow before deciding on some Very Vanilla seam binding and an Antique Brad.  The sentiment and tag are from the aptly named Tiny Tags.

It's rainy here today (again) so I'm off to run some errands than to sit down in the craft cave and crank out some cards for the upcoming week.  Thanks for stopping by!
