My first card just didn't seem to come together right. I tried a masking technique where I made a paper snowflake and inked over it. That part turned out OK and I will try it again on another card in other colors for a stained glass effect. I just don't think it looks right all together, but here it is. I wish I had inked and embossed the sentiment in white or silver. I thought the black would be a nice contrast, but it looks out of place.

My other card did have some heidi grace Christmas paper with mistletoe, birds, and pears. I used my circle punch and Cuttlebug for "thanks" and a piece of Offray ribbon to tie it together. Simpler and more successful than the first card, I think.
I think you did GREAT for not having winter papers! These are cool - what a great idea to stencil a snowflake!!
