MY FIRST CHALLENGE ENTRY

   I have been wanting to enter challenges for years, but it never happened. When I saw this one from the As You See It Challenge blog, I knew I had to do it. As soon as I saw the requirements to meet the challenge, I knew what I wanted to do, but unfortunately my first idea didn't work out, so I modified it, and I'm not as happy with it as I thought I would be, but oh well, it is what it is.
 
The requirements were:

 
I had already used the Stampin' Up! Subtles embossing folder with silver foil before and loved it, so I knew that was going to be my background. After I finished the card, I realized that I had made something that was impossible to take a picture of. I finally ended up with one halfway decent picture, but it isn't the greatest and doesn't show the sparkle on the snowflakes, which were cut out of white glitter paper.
 
The home for this challenge is: http://www.asyouseeitchallenge.com/2020/01/challenge-216-recipe-for-sparkle.html


And here is my entry:
 
Blessings,
   Janis

    Janis, this is gorgeous! I'm so glad you dipped your toe into the challenge waters with us! I hear exactly what you're saying too - I often have a great idea then it doesn't work out and foil .... notoriously difficult to get a good photo of. The texture of the silver foil is lovely and the snowflakes look great against it, with or without glitter. :-) Thanks for joining in with us at AYSI.
