Flurry of Warm Wishes

Here's my card for the current challenge at CAS(e) this Sketch.  I've had the beautiful Flurry of Warm Wishes stamp set from SugarPea Designs on my desk since it arrived at my house and knew right away that this layout was perfect for showing off the set's intricate snowflake images.  Here, I stamped the largest snowflake twice in diagonal corners of a watercolor paper panel.  The image was stamped in silver ink, then heat embossed in silver ink for more shimmer.  After stamping the set's "sending you a flurry of warm wishes" sentiment between the flakes and embossing it, too, I pressed the panel into some distress inks spritzed with water to give the panel a watercolored look.  Once the panel dried, I adhered it to a silver cardstock mat, then placed it on a coordinating blue card base.
