Winter Wonderland

This time of year it seems like I get the most use out of Lovely as a Tree. I just love the look of winter trees!  It especially came in handy for the challenge at The Friday Mashup! where the challenge was to create a Winter (non-Christmas) card with embossing. I also used the sketch at Create with Connie and Mary. 

I tried to make my card a little different from the sketch, which I don't usually do. lol I have a hard time thinking out of the box sometimes. :) 

Here are some up-close pictures of the trees. I added Silver Dazzling Details to the trees to make them look like a winter wonderland.

I never use these two embossing folders, so I was glad to get a chance to use them!  I especially like the Designer Frame, I just don't know how to use it. At first I just had the larger oval stamped, but then I decided I wanted to add some more layers and embossing. This was the perfect choice!  Most of my embossing on the Midnight Muse cardstock was covered up anyway, so it was nice to have the extra texture. I also lucked out and had this one little strip of Pool Party Seam Binding Ribbon hanging around which worked perfectly on my card!  It's nice to be able to use up some scraps too. :)
