This baby is big! It measures almost 4 1/2" across! Doesn't it look like a big lacy doily? I started by white embossing it on my tag, then sponging on faded jeans, chipped sapphire, and a little salty ocean distress inks. Then I overstamped some smaller snowflakes from various Hero Arts clear sets in faded jeans. I added this pretty pearl brad that was given to me by Sue Czosek years ago, I think, and die-cut the "joy" and small snowflake from my Wplus9 Seasonal Sentiments die set, sponging the snowflake in the same blues I used for the background. And I added some white seam binding to finish.
