Hello all! I am here to share with you a card I made for the CCAYR challenge this month, which is "Let it Snow":
I used a piece of *GORGEOUS* wrapping paper that I acquired this past Christmas at the work gift exchange. One of my close work friends also participated, and she used this wrapping paper, which I was drooling over as soon as I saw it. I was lucky enough to draw the number that her package was assigned the day before, so I was very happy!! :) I had the snowflake embossed panel lying on my desk for awhile, and decided this was the perfect card to use it on. I inked the edges of the panel with Broken China Distress Oxide ink, and after I mounted the image panel with fun foam, I also ran some Star Dust Stickles around the edges with my finger. In case you are wondering about the washed out look in the picture, the card looks a lot more saturated IRL.

Hi, Marie! Like you, I enjoy using wrapping paper on certain projects. This snowman definitely needed to be featured on a card! Beautifully done! So glad you uploaded your project to Christmas at the Sweet Stampin’ Challenge so I could come visit. Your artwork is a delight! Hope to see more of your pretty submissions in the future. Please check back to see if you are a selected DT favorite!
