Seasons GREETINGS

musechristmasvisions.blogspot.caMuse Christmas Visions 24

Chriss provided us with a fun snowy winter scene card for our inspiration.  The elements from Chriss' card used on mine are:
--red birds
--snow slopes
--tree (mine is green)
--holly

I decided to make my card mostly the snow slopes with just the top of the tree and the birds showing.  I experimented with the snow ... wanted to replicate snow that starts to melt then freezes (applied stickles then sprinkled embossing powder with fine glitter and heat embossed).  Even with heat embossing, the glitter shed a little, so I applied a coat of varnish.  Like IRL, the "snow" has that crunchy texture.  With the extra product applied, unfortunately, some of the slope contours disappeared.

Thank you for looking and commenting ... always appreciate your feedback.
