WOW - white on white

Hello all!
Back with a card that's for the current challenge over at Kenny K's Krafty Krew which is, as the blog post title says, a white on white challenge.  Fortunately you are allowed to colour the image so with that in mind I decided to do a Christmas card as all the white made me think of snow.  I used the Mistletoe digi and coloured her very lightly using cool blues (B00 and B000), trying to keep the image a bit washed out (great technical term there!)
      The background bits to the card were cut using my Cameo and I dry embossed the tree and the frame shape to get some added texture and interest.  The snowflakes (hand punch) were blinged up with a sticky gem in the centre of each and I tied some thin white ribbon through the background and on the small stamped tag.

                Apologies for the funny colour, (more cream than white), in the photo but I cannot get the balance right when snapping white pictures!!



I would also like to enter this into the challenges at Tuesday Throwdown , Creative moments , Holly Jolly Christmas , Through the Craftroom Door and Simon Says Stamp and Show.


Thanks for popping in :)

Wonderful card! White on white is very difficult to do, but you did it wonderfully. I love the die cuts and textures you added.
