I used an unusual color scheme for me but I really liked working with these colors. It's good to get outside my comfort zone sometimes right? Isn't that embossing folder fun!! I just love the deep impression that it gives!
I also had fun with the Cappuccino twine! For this card I wrapped it around the mat 3 times and then tied a bow and then I put the ends through a button and tied another bow. I think the double bow is kind of a fun, unexpected element!
The melon berry looking ink on the snowflakes is "Pink Grapefruit" VersaMagic and it is a PERFECT match to PTI's Melon Berry! That was a great discovery!
I hope you enjoyed this card!! I am keeping this short tonight because I am tired and can't think straight, LOL!! Thanks for coming by!

Lindsay is right, the color scheme is great and so is your big twiny bow! I just love those Verve sentiments too!
Great color combo, layout and use of twine! I'm lovin' all aspects of this card!
Jen I LOVE this.. such a FUN color combo!!! We were cold here to.. warming up some but I am still ready for SUMMER! (ok at least a warm spring! LOL!)
Have a GREAT weekend!
Jen, I love the colours here and the way you've tied the twine in the button!
Love the color combo and what you did with the twine. Just beautiful!
Eeep! Could this be any CUTER?! Love this! :)
Jen, I love the non-traditional colors you used for these snowflakes! And I am sending you a cyber-hug for sharing that info about the ink! I have been on the hunt for a MB ink match forever and am so impatient for the new inks to be released! Thank you!!
I love the colors that you used on this Jen ........ and the twine is just a perfect touch!!1
Jen, this is just gorgeous!!! I love your card and your ink discovery. Absolutely beautiful!
Hi, Jen! This is so pretty! Love that color combo! I just love melon berry so thanks so much for the top on the perfectly matching ink!
Great card. I love the color scheme.
very pretty combo- and love hearing the pink grapefruit ink find! :D
OK, let's get down to brass tacks Jen. By "FREEZING", do you mean 32 degrees Fahrenheit or lower? Or do you just mean "cold?" LOL *wink*
It was 12 degrees here today. We have 3 + feet of snow, and the roads are covered in ice. I took my kids to the mall...they've never been. It's an hour's drive and my car was sliding all over the highway. *grumble*
I love this incongruous card. Snowflakes in pretty pastel spring colors! What a nifty idea!
Love this card! Simple and clean and elegant. It's wonderful to see the pastels and snowflakes together...be still my heart!
What a pretty card! I love the embossing in the background and the color combo is beautiful!
Jen this is *SO* unexpected and refreshing!! What a beautiful mix of colour, texture and subtle elements!
Lovely!
LOVE THIS!!! The color combo is GORGEOUS, and the embossed background and twine bow are perfect details!!!
