Christmas Cards All Year Round - November Challenge No.2

My youngest DS is home with the flu today.  So while he was napping, I got a chance to stamp – sure beats cleaning out barf buckets – eeww!  Anyways, here is my non-traditional Christmas card! 

I sponged my front panel and the main cardstock with soft suede. 
I then stamped the tree in black and added the half pearls to give it some colour.  I mounted the front panel onto a soft suede panel.  I had some bright pink ribbon that I wanted to use in place of the sentiment, but then it didn t leave me any room for my sentiment. 

I punched out my snowflake and sprayed the snowflakes along with my panel with the Vanilla Smooch Spray.  I love how you can create a shimmery cardstock without having to run to the LSS.  Although the photo doesn t really do it any justice, it is really pretty in person.  Here is my group of 5 cards:

I hope you like it!
