Warmest Wishes

Today I'm sharing my Christmas Card - though it's been so warm here lately it's hard to even look at this snow! I stamped the background with my Honeycomb stamp set. It's mounted onto Kraft paper. The snowflakes were all cut on the Artiste Cricut cartridge. I'm linking this card up to An Original Belle's Make It Monday Link Party.
The snowflakes were cut with a shadow and a detailed image, which I inked and popped up with 3-D Foam tape. I coated each snowflake with Stardust Glitter Glitz and added teensy tiny silver Microbeads using my tweezers. They dried right into the glitter glitz and seemed sturdy, so I called that good.
I built a bow out of color ready seam binding and the edging from some burlap ribbon I had cut up for my owl cards but couldn't bring myself to toss out. You can see some of that scrap burlap under the ribbon running across the card too. I topped that ribbon with a tiny strip of Silver Shimmer Trim coated with more Stardust glitter glitz. 
Here's the inside...hope this card made your day a little sweeter!

How do I get on your Christmas card list???? OMGoodness!!! This is fantastic and tiring all at once. I can't believe the details ... the endless details. I have been staring and staring at this.

Thanks, Shelly! I wouldn't normally put this much detail into one card...I save that for Scrapbook pages, lol!
