Inspired by Muse: ChristmasVisions #23

Happy Friday everyone!
I was so inspired by Kimberly's awesome snowflake card for Muse: Christmas Visions 
that I created 2 cards. Here is my first card:

  
I used Cas-ual Fridays new Lovely Snowflake stamp set.  I love the size and design of this snowflake.  The sentiment is from Lovely Blessings, which is another new stamp set by Cas-ual Fridays.  After embossing the snowflake in white I took my distress inks, peacock feathers and blueprint sketch, and sponged over top of the snowflakes.  I focused blueprint sketch in the center of the snowflakes like Kimberly did on her snowflakes. 

Here is my next card:


I used the same technique as the first card but these snowflakes are different and AWESOME!!!!  These snowflakes are part of the soon to be released Stamp of Approval Holiday Magic Collection by Catherine Pooler.  I just love them!!!  The adorable little tag is from Cas-ual Fridays and the sentiment is another sneak peek into the SOA collection.

I was not only inspired by Kimberly's card, but also this one by Lisa and the sketch over at The Challenge!

Here is Kimberly's awesome card!
