This fourth card for the OSW project came out very nice. Snow Front is a holiday catalog stamp set that coordinates with Waterfront. It is very easy to create a small scene, I think it took me less than two minutes to create this scene on my oval focal.

Measurements:

  • Crumb Cake - 5 1/4" x 3" (dry embossed with the

One additional color of coordinating solid CS was also fair game...
