Peace

Hi there!  Happy Monday!  I hope your week is off to a great start!  Sadly, our friends headed back home today.  We had a wonderful time while they were here!  I'm already looking forward to the next time we can get together.  I've spent the day trying to catch up with things around the house and in my craft room.  I am popping in really quickly to share a card I made for a few challenges I enjoy doing.
 
Here is my card:


There is not much to describe.  I was going for a "white on white" look.  I embossed the left panel with my Snowflakes embossing folder and I cut a scalloped border for the right with the Cheery Lynn Border Carnivale die.  The tranquil image is Snowy Mailbox from Delicious Doodles.  I only lightly shaded it with my gray Copics, then I added some Polar White Flower Soft to some of the snowy areas.  The Peace sentiment was cut with my Cameo.  Some wrinkled ribbon and a sparkly metal snowflake from my stash finished my card.

I am entering my card in the following challenges:
Delicious Doodles Challenge (white on white)
Sketch N Stash Challenge #138 (sketch; I flipped it)
Fab 'n' Funky Challenge #214(Christmas)
Card Mania (emboss it)

Here is the sketch:

Have a great evening and see you soon!
