Flurry of Fun

As most of you know, I love making Christmas cards!  I recently figured out how to use my metal shim so was able to die cut the beautiful Memory Box snowflake border using this lovely DCWV glitter paper. Velvet goes with winter & I had this little piece of white ribbon just the size I needed. Love the A Muse Studio sentiment which I stamped in Memento Gray Flannel.  I used a red Copic to color the tiny pearls & added dots of Stickles Frosted Lace.  Luckily my card works for several challenges: Memory Box Cool Thoughts for Warm Days, SSS Wednesday Anything Goes,  Die Cut Divas Favorite Holiday, August Rudolph Days Anything Christmas, Pixies Snippets Playground Use Snippets & Inkspirational Word Prompt Melt. Thanks for taking time to stop by.
Edited to add: Thanks to Asha I'm entering at CASE-ing Christmas since I unknowingly cased DT member, Steph.
