I started this card for the PTI Blog Hop, but finished too late. That's OK since it's also my take on the PTI MIM challenge to stamp a plaid background & I used the Viva la Verve November Week 3 Sketch. 2 images from PTI Watercolor Wonder stamped with Brilliance Mediterranean Blue & Pearlescent Ice Blue were used to create the plaid. The same inks were used for the die cuts & sentiment from PTI Snowflake Flurries. I added a bit of Stickles to the snowflake centers. The bow keeps it from being flat, but I love bows!
I'm also entering the Inkspirational challenge--Christmas without red or green & sparkle & I'll join the Anything Goes gallery at SSS Wed & SSS Work It Wed.
Usually it's just the 2 of us for Thanksgiving, so it was really nice to have a family day at hubby's daughter's.
Her newest family member is an 8 week old German Shepherd named Sasha, so you know who got my attention--LOL!
What a cute pup! I'm glad you had a wonderful holiday. I love this card. It looks like a present on a card and the snowflakes are perfect!
