Midweek Magnolias Challenge #123-"Christmas is Coming"!!

Good Wednesday morning crafty friends!!

Today at Midweek Magnolias we begin a brand new challenge...as always our most wonderful sponsor is Magnolia Sweden!!  With Christmas just around the corner what better time for us to begin wading through our Christmas card list!

I so love the look of a white Christmas card but do find them a bit of a challenge...so I decided to tackle one!!

Here is what I came up with...
please click on the first image for a closer view/slideshow...
the base was cut using Go Kreate #360030...
layered with cheesecloth, matt embossed using Cuttlebug Snowflakes embossing folder...
 this darling Tilda is "It's Cold Outside Tilda" from the Waiting for Christmas 2014 collection...
coloured with my distress inks...
dusted with Chunky White Frantage...
I bought some new 3D White Frantage that I used at her feet...love it...but I think I've covered up much of it with the cheesecloth...
decorated with pearls and Glamour Dust...
buttons are covered with Glossy Accents...
trees are cut using Dee's Distinctively Small & Large dies... 
  diamante snow flake stick pin is decorated with shabby white seam binding and white pine cone charms...
 snow flakes are made using Crealies Creative Flowers CL CF #18...
 banner is by Spellbinders stamped using Stampingbella "merry Christmas"...
 I matted the sentiment matt over chessecloth...
stamp is Hero Arts...
 
And that is my white Christmas card!!  Won't you hop on over to check out my teamies gorgeous Christmas creations then get busy and join us!!!
 
All materials are listed/linked above.
