May your Holidays Sparkle

I was having fun playing with some Distress Oxides and then I decided to use some for this sketch. They are not the traditional colors for Christmas, but that's was intrigued me. I also found some ribbon that I had recycled from a gift. I dry embossed the white background and then pulled out some snowflake die cuts and put a pearl in the center of the smaller ones. Then used a My Favorite Things Christmas Sentiment that I have had for quite sometime as a freebie set.

    Fantastic Christmas card, Lisa. I love the way you've used the Distress Inks and that big snowflake with the sentiment inside.
