For my final project this week, I've used Dear Santa and Forever Forest (along with some other things) to make a cute little birthday card for the young at heart. My grandson's 18th birthday is coming up and this little guy reminds me so much of him the first time we took him ice skating in Disneyland at Olaf's Skating Rink. Such great memories! I've used a new technique with the Pearlized Enamel Effects to make the snow on my mountain tops. To see how I've put this card together, be sure to watch the replay over on my YouTube channel.

I hope you have enjoyed seeing the new technique of adding texture for snow with the pearlized enamel effects. I know I was thrilled with how it turned out.
