Whew! can you tell I am proud of this card or what!

This card is made with my favourite and new papers The Winter Joy Collection from Bo Bunny the strip down the centre is from the cardstock sticker collection. I couldn't find any circle die cut big enough so I drew around one of my mother's colour wheels which was the perfect size.

The greeting is a rub on from the same collection.

The Penny Black stamp "Snow Trot" is stamped on cream shimmery paper and coloured with Promarkers.

The snowflake embellishment is a sticker from the Winter Joy Collection backed on some purple card from my crafty stash. The pearls are from Papermania.
