Unity's Friends with Flair: Let It Snow

Finally getting around to posting for the new year!  The first of many for 2014!

For this week's Friends with Flair over at Unity Stamp Company, I was feeling the chill of the winter season - even though we don't get a winter down in South Florida.  (Don't be too jealous, as we have summer heat for too many of the months & you can grow weary of it - tropical is not all it's cracked up to be!)

So the only way I can get my winter is with using some awesome images, like this one from Phyllis Harris at Unity: Let It Snow.
I think this image, while I bought to use on Christmas cards, is also ideal for any winter cards in January & beyond.
Every snowman needs some sparkle-accents, so I glittered 'em up!  It makes snow seem magical, like when the sun or moon casts on it from a certain angle.  You see, I told you I get easily transported when working with these images!  (I sit there & really work on the image, but find myself being transported to when I was growing up & playing in the snow.) 
Hopefully from the closer shot you can see the details from the coloring, as well as the individual snow flakes highlighted with more glitter.

Truly hope you enjoyed my card cr8'ion for this week's FWF!  It's so therapeutic - not to mention a true labor of love - making cards; today's card is a perfect example!

Happy Cr8'ing!
