Cat's Pajamas Challenge--Embossing

So now that my room is all put together, I can finally sit down and create stuff. Problem was at the start of the week I was still all confuzzled as to where everything was, so by last night I was able to crank out this card knowing where my supplies were now hiding :) I actually got a challenge for The Cat's Pajamas done on time to be eligible for the weekly winner. I usually get to them sometime during the month, but this one got done quickly as I had the time and the inspiration right away. We finally got some snow in the Chicagoland area, and I make a snow-themed card for one of the secretaries whenever we get the first snowfall as we are what seems to be the only two people in the building to love snow. I went into my stash and dug out my Snow Day set and went to work. I used a sketch from who knows where from who knows when as my inspiration and went for my Echo Park winter paper from last year's collection to get some color inspiration. I used a Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder on the kraft layer, stitched a border then went to town distressing the edges with some Fresh Snow ink from Papertrey ink. I then rubbed it over the popped up snowflakes to give them some color and dimension too. Then I don't know if this counts as embossing or not, but I used some of my much neglected Liquid Applique and made the snowballs fluffy. I really wanted to use my TCP snowflake die, but I didn't have any coordinating colors of felt to make a snowflake, and I wanted it to be felt-y, so I used one I had in my stash already. Thanks for stopping by!
