 Wanting to do a different kind of Snowy card, I started with Scroll Shadow Box, just one of the many fabulous frames from Sweet Stamps.  It is stamped with Distress Ink Pad Clear and embossed with Fantasy White EP.  Using a 4-Split Perforating Tool and a Piercing/Perforating Pad, I cut the Scroll frame out.  This is such an easy process!!!  Mrs Snow was stamped with Tuxedo Black Momento Ink and colored with Copics .  I used Sparkly Fluff on Mrs. Snow for a realistic 'snowy' look.  It doesn't show well in the picture, but is perfect in person.  Winter Tree  was stamped with Distress Ink  and Marvy's Snowy Marker gives the branches that fresh snow fallen look.  I highlighted the Winter Tree and Cheery Lynn's Pine Branches  with Winter Frost from Creative Inspirations.  

Other Sweet Stamps Products:

It's Beginning to Look

Stickles Lavendar Glue

Thimbleberry Shades Dye Ink

The ribbon is from my stash.  The finished size of the card is 4.50" x 6.25".
