The snowflake challenge at Just Us Girls helped me along with my card. Instead of a rectangle I chose to use a giant snowflake pieced together with some glitter embossing powder and a snowflake die cut from matching glitter paper. I added a simple sentiment embossed onto vellum (and had a heck of a time getting it to stick to the glitter paper)! I chose blue as my color partially based on the challenge banner from Just Us Girls as well as the color challenge at Color Dare.
Thanks for stopping by! We're excited at Freshly Made Sketches to bring you our first challenge of the year and hope that you will play along with us!
