Snow !

I came across tag Tuesday by visiting one of my blogger idols Valerie who makes amazing tags and I saw that she had joined this group and being the nosey parker I am came over for a peep and boy am I glad I did ! What a great idea ! What amazing talent all gathered in one place. I did feel a little daunted by such gorgeousness but what the heck nothing ventured nothing gained so I decided to do a bit of venturing !

The light was fading fast when I took these pictures and I had to stick the tag in a plant pot near the window to throw a little light on it ! ( excuses already and I haven't even shown it yet ! )



I smeared Gesso on the Grey card stock and the Die Cut snowflake added UTEE to the edges of both with a little added glitter. I used only one layer of the UTEE as it gives a crystal type effect which of course is not very apparent due to the light problem. I embossed the white cardstock and covered the trees with glossy accents and more glitter and added a silver ribbon and that's me !

Right am off now to visit you all , such amazing and inspirational work I'm drooling already ! Not a pretty sight

Take care

Marie
