Cheerful Monday #1 - White as Snow

There has not been any snow in this part of the country and I have to admit I miss it ... winter without snow, well, it is not a real winter (sigh).  Not to become too melancholic I decided to make a card for a merry and cheerful occasion: a white wedding card for Vicki's first challenge over at the Cheerful Stamp Pad: White as Snow

I used a square white card and layered it with white pearlescent  and corrugated card. The edges of the pearlescent card are punched with a Martha Stuart edge punch. The middle part of the card is covered with white lace and grosgrain ribbon. I created a focal point by cutting a wonderful flower wreath from white pearlescent card (Memory Box Die) and a heart (hand-cut) ... lots of blings and a little heat-embossed sentiment (stamps: Elzybells).

Now it is your turn. I hope you have time to participate in Vicki's first challenge of 2013. She has found an awesome sponsor - Classy Cards 'n Such - with lots of wonderful items in stock. So, waht are you waiting for. Come and play with us! Petra.

    Love your white on white card Petra, it is really beautiful!

    I too miss snow here in Virginia. This weekend we are expecting temperatures a good 20 degrees warmer than normal...it will feel like spring! (I like spring but not necessarily in winter!)
