I inked the outline in CN9 Clover & stamped the GKD tiny star in PTI Pure Poppy. I also inked the pieces in Pure Poppy. The plaid background was made with Altenew Beach Towel Stripes stencil using the same inks, but kept light. Looks much better in person than in the pictures. 
The W&W sentiment is black embossed & I randomly stamped the GKD snowflake in Delicata Silvery Shimmer. I added red & silver Stickles & a silver metallic mat. I'm also entering DCD.
The dry embossing was done with SSS Square Dance Stencil & what a difference it makes--love it! Sorry I just couldn't get decent pictures, but it's so pretty in person. 
The sentiment is SSS Painted Hugs stacked 3 high with the bottom layer inked in spun sugar, the middle white cardstock & the top silver metallic cardstock. The splatters are pewter Distress Stain. I tied on a white crochet bow & added a silver gem.
