I recently purchased a stamp set with Christmas Sentiments from Paper Sweeties because I wanted to make a change from my usual stamped sentiment which is "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year." I chose "Christmas is a Time for Wonder" from the set, and using the sketch from the Paper Sweeties challenge, created this card for Christmas 2012.
I used SU's Whisper White and Cherry Cobbler card stock as well as SU's Snow Flurry die and Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder. I also used the Madera Corner die from Memory Box. Although it's hard to see in the photo, I glittered the snowflakes with SU's Dazzling Diamonds glitter. The ribbon and faux pearls are from AC Moore.
I entered this design in:
