For my card, I knew I wanted to make a snowy shaker. I ran across THIS video by Nina-Marie Trapani, used what I had on hand, and my card came together easily.

ReplyDeleteStephanie, thank you so much for the warm welcome! OK - this card just makes me happy. I love the background. I love the simple white star. I love the white frame, and the sentiment. But more than all of those things, your sequins are just perfect for this challenge. A glittery masterpiece.
