I used another die to cut the snow.  I then used the snowflakes that come with the stamp and used white embossing powder.

I have to be honest in these pinks are not my thing so I struggle to design. I decided to use an new stamp set and die I had just gotten from Technique Tuesday.

I decided to stamp the background with second generation Blossom using the Beautiful Dragonflies Stamp Set.  I then cut the dragonfly using Build a Dragonfly Die.

I added a bit of glitter with the Bashful glitter paper and the Bashful Shimmer brush. I used the brush to add some shimmer to the “love” and the wings of the eggplant dragonfly.  You can see that better here.
