Let It Snow PSC04 Challenge and November CCC11 Challenge

This is just getting the Perfect Sentiments Challenge 04 in just under the wire.  Thought I'd give it a shot.  The Challenge: create a card that reflects a sentiment of "Season's Greetings".






The base is SU Marina Mist.  I used 2 pieces of Basic Gray Figgy Pudding layered on top of the base.  I embossed the snowflakes from the SU retired set - Lace Snowflakes and embossed 2 of them with Sterling Silver and 2 with Sky Blue embossing powder and then layered them randomly on top of the Figgy Pudding dp.  The sentiment is from See D's - Holiday Words and Sayings.  This set has been hanging around my stamp room for the last 3 years not being used.  I embossed it using the Sterling Silver ep and then cut it out and matted it on Marina Mist.  I am NOT a good bow maker, so I bought a Bowdabra bow maker and used it to make my bow and then glued a Prima flower in the center.  That's it.

This is also my first one done for the November Christmas Card Challenge.  I still need to make 4 more.

Thanks for stopping by.  I appreciate your comments.  Have a wonderful day!
