A new challenge

from Skipping Stones Designs features this fun sketch:

I love working with sketches, and I really love seeing how everyone else interprets them!  And this also works for the Winter Wonderland challenge at Fussy and Fancy and for Simon Say Stamp challenge: punches and dies.  Here is my card for these challenges:

I started with this pretty piece of snowflake dp that has, besides the snowflakes, some text and music in it.  I used my 1 1/4" punch to punch out 9 squares, and glued them to the card.  I thought it would be fun to use the negative image left from a snowflake diecut, so that was popped above a piece of blue cardstock.  Then I added some pale blue and white gingham ribbon, a blue punched snowflake, a button and the sentiment. 

I find it hilarious that I'm making all of these snowflake cards in October, but come January, we will flee south from our awful Ohio winter ;)

Supplies: white and blue cardstock, the Paper Studio dp "Vintage Blue Snowflake", Hero Arts CL368 Make Your Own (for sentiment), stamped in Adirondack Denim ink, pale blue gingham ribbon, punched snowflake, button, Paper Shapers 1 1/4" square punch
