Snowflake greetings

Snowflake and holly is a stamp by Penny Black that I have used here before, but in a totally different look.  Still working on my cards.  Lucky that we have the 12 days of Christmas for me to get them all where they should go.  As a little inspiration I am posting this at Joan's Garden just for the fun.  I would like to put a Thank You to her as I was the lucky winner last week.  The card was stamped with Memento black, distressed with Antique Linen and colored with Copic YG 61 an YG 63,  I added holly using the Viva Paper Pen in red to give it that 3D effect.  A snowflake gem from Hero Arts and some red and white twine put some finishing touches on the card,  Green and red paper from the stash finally make this a card.  Very simple, which is good as I am making several.  Hope you enjoy

  2. WOW, Mary Jo, I DID enjoy this -- LOVE it, in fact!!! Penny Black's stamps are quite special and this is an awesome one! I need one more card and it needs to be elegant -- too bad this stamp isn't in my arsenal tonight!
