The papers I used are from Stamperia's Sweet Christmas collection. The edges were all distressed. I used an Amy Design die called Ice Crystal Circle which can be found at Crafty City. Isn't it gorgeous? The My Besties image is called "Reindeer of Joy" and was colored with Copic markers. The snowflake stickers are from Martha Stewart. The flowers I used are Hip Rosebuds, Wild Roses, Tea Roses, and Apple Blossoms which can be found at Secret Garden Crafts. The leaves are Mulberry Paper Leaves. A bit of lace, Stickles and twine bows finish off the card.
The pink bow at the top is actually a removable tag.
I love the soft colors of this paper collection. It is so cheerful!
