Snowflake sparkle

Hi again,

This is my second post for today - it's just a few minutes before midnight as I'm typing. Here is another snowflake tree ornament card, inspired by Dawn McVey's second photo card in today's HCBC post. I am still trying to find a photo to use for a card - I suspect it might take me a while. Mostly my photos are of cards I've made, and although the idea of a card featuring a photo of a card kind of amuses me, I'm not so far gone that I'd actually make one! (Or am I? Hmm...) The photo here doesn't really show up the glitter that is stuck around the edges of the snowflake or on the heart, but you get the idea. If I made something like this again, I would make the snowflake thicker by sticking the manuscript onto some cardstock first. I was trying to make it seem delicate but in RL it seems a little too feeble.


Details:
Stamps: PTI Love Lives Here - Holidays
Ink: Versacolor black, Aged Mahogany Distress Ink and a very old unlabelled pink dye ink (on the heart)
Paper: old music, My Mind's Eye Lost & Found 2 - Blush 6x6 pack
Cardstock: SU! Kraft
Other: Adirondack Acrylic Paint Dabber Snow Cap (on the heart), Tim Holtz idea-ology Grunge Paper (for the heart), gold tapestry thread, ribbon, dimensional adhesive, gloss spray varnish (on the heart), Martha Stewart Crystal Coarse Glitter, PTI Snowflake die

Thanks for looking. I hope your Boot Camp card making is going well, if you are involved.
