ODBDSLC178 challenge

The challenge this week on the Our Daily Bread Designs Blog is a sketch.
I used the "Snowflake background" stamp from Our Daily Bread Designs on
this card to create the background on the powder blue cardstock. I used
'Silver Pearl' embossing powder to heat emboss the cardstock. I embossed
white cardstock with the same stamp using 'baby blue' embossing powder.
I then die cut a circle and a rectangle from the white. I heat embossed
the edge of a piece of white cardstock and the edge of a scalloped circle die
cut with the silver pearl powder. I also heat embossed the metal snowflakes
and a strip of white to put behind the circle with the silver pearl.
The sentiment was heat embossed with baby blue. I added a ribbon across
the strip running down the paper and raised the circle and the sentiment
with form strips. The sentiment is from the "Blessed Christmas" stamps set by
http://ourdailybreaddesigns.com/
as is the Snowflake background stamp.
