This was my first card and I was going to do something more in line with what Lizzie did, by adding an image and sentiment banner to the bottom of the circle. But, when I finished pearlizing my circle it looked like an ornament to me so that's what it became. I noticed that Connie's card was an ornament, and a stunning one at that, so I decided to try it again.
This time I changed the layout, putting the pearlized circle in the center and adding some small snowflakes using first and second generation stamping.
Sorry for my poor photography skills. The sheen from the pearlized blending was hard for me to capture with my ipad. I used the sentiment and sled from "Six Feet Deep" to finish the card off.
I'm also adding this into the following challenges:

Both cards are so pretty! The ornament hanging from the boughs is fabulous.
Just gorgeous, Birgit! Can't decide which I like better. Both too pretty to choose!
Both cards are lovely! What a pretty shiny blue!
Pretty! I love how your ornament turned out! :)
Both cards are gorgeous Birgit! Absolutely love the blue you used.
I agree that both cards are beautiful, but I am glad that you gave it another try. Love the sled and the pearled circle behind it. Thanks for the inspiration.
So pretty, Birgit. I love that beautiful blue!
I guess I'm with everyone else Birgit, because I love both of them! The ornament is beautiful, but I really like your second card too with the pearlized circle behind the sled...too pretty to pick just one!! :0)
You ornament card is darling. I love that you also added the flourish too. Great idea.
Both these cards are stunning I just had some perfect pearls delivered so cannot wait to play with it
The bulb hanging from the evergreen boughs makes quite a stunning image. Thank you so much for taking time to post your very creative art with us this week at Word Art Wednesday in our 207th AG challenge! Blessings, Carole
These are both amazing cards! I love the color and the shine!
Birgit, these cards are amazing!! WOW, and the perfect pearls really do give the stamped image that extra litle something that makes it stunning!! Beautiful colors too!
Wow, you nailed it again! Both are stunning Brigit! Love how the perfect pearls show so much shimmer, well done!
These are both gorgeous, Birgit. Love that snowy blue you used, love the sheen. May I say that I have a special weakness for evergreen boughs and ornaments, so I especially like your first card.
Oh this card is so pretty and it does look like an ornament-very pretty
This is awesome, Birgit. I love PTI and all their fabulous stamps and dies. Great job using them, my friend. Have a blessed week. I hope you will play along with us at Word Art Wednesday this week, too. I'm really excited to have you as our GDT next month.
Blessings
