We had a snow day today, yes it's mid April but that is when we get our worst snow storms. Since I work at a school I got the day off Yay, and I just heard we are having another snow day tomorrow.
For this card I used the sketch over at Try Stamping on Tuesday. Love this LO. I used Serene Silhouettes for this card. I am calling this my spring in Wyoming card since it looks like the tree and birds are covered in snow. The colors I used are Pink Pirouette, Sahara Sand, and Always Artichoke. I got this color combo from the back of the pink pirouette color coach card. The DSP is from the Twitterpated pack. I wanted to use some ribbon in Sahara Sand but I didn't have any, actually I don't think SU sells any in Sahara Sand. So I used the 3/8" Taffeta Ribbon in whisper white and I sponged it with Sahara Sand ink and now I have Sahara Sand ribbon. I stamped the image on pink pirouette CS with whisper white craft ink and embossed it with white embossing powder. I then sponged over that with pink pirouette and Sahara Sand and added some dazzling details to the birds and the branches of the tree. I think the brads are actually crumb cake but they match close enough to the Sahara Sand.

Beautiful job. Can't believe the amount of snow you still have. Thanks for sharing with us at TSOT.
Fantastic card! Love this stamp and scene you have created. We dont get much snow here in Australia - but I think I'll stop complaining about how cold it's getting here ;) Thanks for joining us this week at Try Stampin' On Tuesday :)
Beautiful card, with such a lovely combination of colors and textures. I love the sponging around the tree.
