I am so loving the Creative Imaginations Winter Song paper collection. This is one of my recent projects using it. As you know I usually use lots of paper layers but made a departure from that for this one and simply used the paper as a canvas.
Because this photo of my dd and dgd is so special, I wanted to really allow it to be the focal point and just make the rest of the page "shiver in the background." I have added in a Prima Bretton Vine in Purity as well as the Shabby Chic resin window shutters. The Dusty Attic piece has been painted white and is thinly coated with Stickles and Diamond Dust. There is a Webster's Page cameo on the shutters that was also painted white.
My snowflakes are cut with my Cricut Imagine using my ACY cartridge and the title with the Happy Hauntings cartridge .. a tip I got from friend and former DT sister, Sandy Windsor.
I have pearls randomly placed all over my page to mimic the falling snow. Here are a few close-ups.
Let me end with a little blurb I wrote .. There is something quite magical about fresh, falling snow raining down from the sky and covering the earth in a white blanket. Coming with it is a quietness that is delightful and serene. Its can be seen and touched but more importantly, felt with one's soul. If we are fortunate enough to share this experience with another person, it is sublime.

I love how poetic the little blurb you wrote and let me just say that I wish to never feel that magical feeling ever again, but alas, I live in Minnesota! LOL.
