Winter Snowdrops ~ Double D Challenge

Hi to all you crafty peeps!  It's time for a new challenge over at DD Challenges.  Is there lots of snow in your neck of the woods?  White on white is the theme for this challenge and that makes me think of snow.
 
White on white reminded me of these lovely Snowdrop dies from Marianne Design.

So pretty on a blanket of sparkling snow.  I mounted the snowdrops onto an elegant Brisbane frame from Creative Expressions.

The embossed background is from a folder that I've had forever and has no marking on it, but it sure accentuates the intricacy of the Brisbane frame and those wintry snowdrops, without overwhelming it.
 
Visit the DD Challenge blog for more pretty makes from the talented team members.
Here's the inspiration panel that Darlene has put together for you:
 
And here is the prize you could win when you play along.
 



Thanks for stopping by!

Lots of snow and cold here too Birgit, and I honestly don't think even the hardiest of snowdrops could find their way to the surface here!! I love when they do come though, and yours is absolutely BEAUTIFUL and just perfect for this white on white challenge! I love the touches of glitter too and your die cut and embossed background also. Lovely, lovely card my friend!! Hugs. :0)

White on white makes me think of snow too. But I absolutely love how you added some glow with the snowdrop die. This is a stunning card, Brigit.
