\n<\/a>For my hidden gem, I used the wonderful Winter Town<\/a>\u00a0and a sort of spotlight technique. I also did something I rarely do…I didn’t color a single thing.\u00a0\u00a0At first I wanted to white emboss it on navy card stock, but the image is so detailed, it just couldn’t be done. So I went in the reverse direction and stamped it with navy ink onto white card stock. Just the spotlight area was stamped again on a smaller, taller piece and I added some “snow” with the Ink Spots<\/a> image and few snowflakes cut from the Snow die<\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n

I used the Marble Feathers<\/a> background on the navy card stock layers. You can see it a bit more on the card inside along with some trimmed off navy strips and some stamped snowflakes & one fussy cut snowflake.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
