Moving on to some of this week's challenges - I have two cards to share today. First up is an anniversary card. My design was inspired by the Cas-ual Fridays Challenge - Out on a Limb
My tree branch is Woodland Branch from Memory Box and my sentiment stamp is from Sweet N Sassy. I used my new Tipped Tops Die from PTI for the panel and added flower sequins for a little sparkle. Inside I stamped 'Happy Anniversary'.
My second card's design was inspired by the Freshly Made Sketch.
I just got these beautiful snowflake stamps in the mail this week. They are from a set called Sophisticated Snowflakes designed by Mona Pendleton for My Favorite Things - and they are just lovely - don't you think?! I stamped them in 3 different Memento blue inks and added white sequins to some of the centers. The Noel is from Starry Christmas - also from MFT.
Hope you are all having a lovely weekend. I'm off this morning to a little musical concert that my 2 1/2 year old grandnephew, James, is in with his day care class (how cute will this be!) Then we'll go to James' parents for a pizza lunch.

Julia, Love your snowflake card! Wonderful design on the branch card.
WooHoo! Love your branch card.. Gorgeous..love the simplicity...and of course the glitz. I too love making snowflake cards...
Two fabulous cards--I especially love all the blue snowflakes--they are really gorgeous all together like that.
Wow Julia! Both of your cards are beautiful! Love the sequins sprinkled about! Adds such a nice touch of glam! Thank you so much for making those snowflakes look so amazing! Happy Holidays!
Beautiful cards! Love the snowflakes in blue. Thanks for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches this week!
A truly gorgeous use of that branch. I love the tipped panel you have used - and the splash of color with the sequins. And the snowflakes are lovely in all of those blues.
Your snowflakes are so pretty! Love the colors and your use of the sketch! Glad you joined us this week at FMS!
Love them both but those snowflakes are SO awesome! Love it!
Two gorgeous creations again Julia!! Love the limb with the baubles and the snowflakes look amazing! HUGS :)
The sequins on the branch are the perfect finishing touch...love that idea! Thank you for playing with us at CAS-ual Fridays!
I love the offset panel size but it's those sequins that got me! Thanks for playing along with CAS-ual Fridays!!!
