White on White Baubles

This one was a customer order, and was almost impossible to photograph as the weather is so dingy.  This is a scheduled post as I'm down in Glasgow at the SECC for my annual crafty spend up, leaving they guys to fend for themselves for the weekend, who knows what state the house will be in when I get home!
The baubles were die cut with Spellbinders dies, then stamped and heat embossed with white powder, using stamps that came free with a magazine, the sentiment I computer generated.  I used narrow spotted, ribbon with small double bows to "hang" them.
The embossed background was done with an Embossalicious folder, this is an 8x8 card and it's so handy that embossing folders come in larger sizes now, the one I've used here is an 8x8 one.  I used a Martha Stewart border punch to create the snowflake edging on the right hand side, adding a clear gem to the centre of each snowflake.  I then added a ruffle of pleated white ribbon, and finished my card with four white pearls.
I'm entering this card in the following challenge -
Charisma Cards - #42 - White on White
