Walkin' in a Winter Wonderland...

...on a sensational Saturday at Sugar Creek Hollow! I have combined two of this year's winter releases from Sugar Creek Hollow. I love that I have finally figured out how to "layer" items in my photo editing software. It was definitely a "DUH" moment on my part!! However, here it is!! The fruits of my labor, so to speak! Our challenge this week was to include lace on our card, and this could be either real lace or faux lace. Well, I have plenty of real lace, so I decided to embellish this circle a bit. It sure did add some texture! Also, I have included some of the lovely crinkly ribbon that Tracy sells in the Sugar Creek Hollow store...I'm addicted to it! Talk about adding texture! Thanks for stopping by today...you will love the creations from my other team mates! Check out my list on the left sidebar!
Card Details:
Paper: Graphic 45 designer paper; Riding Hood Red and Kraft by Stampin' Up
Ink: Close to Cocoa to sponge edges

Nancy this is lovely! The lace is perfect around the circle - puts such prominance on the image. And the crinkle ribbon looks fantastic - really is the perfect touch to this card. Your coloring of the image is wonderful too!
