I did a lot of embossing on this card. I love to emboss but don't do it very often. The darker blue mat was edged with a Bridal tinsel ep. It adds a little color but mostly sparkle. The snowflakes at the bottom were embossed twice with white ep. For the image panel I colored the fairies with Copics. I bought this random splotchy dotty style wooden stamp somewhere and thought it would be perfect for falling snow. I used white ep there also and then used Tumbled Glass Distress ink to create the background. There's a little Creative Inspirations Fairy Dust paint on the larger fairy's wings and snowball and some Diamond Dust on the foreground.
Not a lot of embellishment but I wanted the image to be the focal point.
Anything Goes is pretty easy. Just find one of your Mo images in your stash and play along for your chance at a $5.00 gift voucher to the Mo's Digital Pencil Store.

My, oh my! I caught a glimpse of this card when I was checking out your card for ADFD, and I knew I'd also have to comment on this one! What a fabulous job! I love your coloring...as usual, and I really love how you added the extra sparkle with the embossing powders. You picked a great stamp to simulate snow. I'll have to check & see if I have that one. I really love how you merged these adorable digis by Mo. I tend to forget about combining images, but after seeing this I'll have to work on doing this more often.
G.O.R.G.E.O.U.S.!!!!! Wowsers! I love this card! The focal point/images are absolutely beautiful! Love all of the embossing details......it just makes the snowy aspects stand out. And the colors work beautifully together. Lovely card, GF! Love it!
Have a FABulous weekend!
