Snowflake on a long card

Was just surfing my friends' blogs when I spotted my friend Cindy had posted a Scramble in the Hero Arts Flickr group. Yes, we're still out there but often neglect it just because there are so many other formats out there, including our own blogs. Anyway, her challenge is to do a long card so I made one to fit an A10 envelope. Thought I'd make a snowflake card so I could get it into the July CAS Christmas. Plus A Blog Named Hero has a challenge for Christmas in July so thought I'd link it there too. Here's my card:

Supplies: Paper - Neenah Classic Crest Solar White; Paper Studio glitter

Ms Sparkle woodgrain

Dies - Hero Arts Snowflake Fancy Die (retired)

Stamp - Hero Arts Holiday Cheer (retired)

Other - Pine Needles Distress Ink; silver pen

gem in center is from an old My Monthly Hero kit

For a Scramble, you only get 90 minutes to create, photograph and upload so this card is very QACAS. Since it's for Hero Arts, you must use at least one HA product (I used two). The sentiment is from a 2011 clear set I recently received from my friend Jean - thanks again, Jean!! How did I not have that set in my stash is a mystery...

Thanks for stopping and thanks to Cindy for motivating me to get another Christmas card done!!
