For my card, I used the Concord & 9th stamp sets, Flourish for the stamped leaves, stems and berries for my background and I used Sophisticated Script Uppercase and Sophisticated Script Lowercase to stamp my Winter Wishes sentiment. I started out with an enchanted evening card base, then stamped a panel of white cardstock using spring rain & brocade blue inks and the large leaf/stem stamp from the Flourish set. Then I went back in with enchanted evening ink to stamp some detail into the leaves. Next I stamped my sentiment onto a die cut oval using enchanted evening ink. A tip I can pass along when lining up these beautiful script letters is to stamp the center letters first and work your way out. For instance, I stamped the "n" and "s" in each word and then stamped the reminder of my letters. I also stamped off using spring rain ink onto my oval sentiment piece, then adhered it to my card with foam tape. To a bit of sparkle, I added some silver sequins throughout my background.

Your 'Frosty' card is not only lovely, but an ingenious showcase of combining various stamps sets! I think I have all of these (a bit obsessed with C9!), so I'll be adding this gem to my 'case' list!

Gorgeous! I had been thinking of doing something similar, as Flourish is one of the two Concord & 9th stamps that I own...
Gorgeous card! I love the colors. I wasn't a big fan of the Flourish stamp set until now, I think I will reconsider. Great job.
