Verve Winter Spotlights - Day 4

Hi everyone!  Welcome to Day 4 of the Winter release spotlights!  Today we are spotlighting the fabulous set, Glad Tidings.  This set has 3 wonderful snowflakes, another cool tag image, a wreath and 14 sentiments!   Trust me, YOU WILL LOVE THIS SET!
My card is super quick and easy, and (bonus) this will mail easily.  I used the FTL113 sketch and I think it worked perfectly for the snowflakes.  I stamped them in black, colored them with a couple blue copic markers and punched them out.  They can easily be dressed up with stickles, rhinestones, etc, but I kept it really simple with a couple scored lines and 3 rhinestones by the sentiment.

It's hard to tell in the picture but that is NOT black cardstock, it is SHINY silver.  Which, by the way, is next to impossible to photograph.  Oh well...

Here is a list of the Divas who have Spotlight samples to share today.  As usual, one lucky random commenter will be winning all the stamps spotlighted today!
