    I love your snowperson card with all the gorgeous details of the shimmery embossed card, scalloped borders, snowflake and ribbon. You've created such a fun card, but elegant and stylish as well. Wonderful.

    Your card is beautiful -- that shimmery cardstock is wonderful as well as that shiny satin ribbon! I give her a 10 -- oops, they don't score that way any longer in figure skating, do they?
