For my card today I am using Verve's Glad Tidings and Sunny Days sets.   I am using the Mojo Monday Sketch.  I stamped the tag image and embossed with white.  I cut out with the Sweet Scallop die.   I sponged some ranger Stormy Sky ink.  I stamped the sentiment with some smokey shadow ink.   I added some snow glitter to areas of the snowflakes center.    I used the leafy sprig images from Sunny Days set.  I stamped both the large and smaller leafy image using Ranger stormy sky ink.  I used Verve's Cut Above Leafy Sprigs Die.   To keep with some cool tones,  I added some teal blue glitter to one, silver glitter to the other, and  a snow glitter to the smaller, and silver glitter to one.  I arranged the three around my seam binding blow.  I added a few curly ques of silver memory thread and topped off my bow with a star burst.
