I wanted to use this snowglobe since last year, but wasn't able to. Nothin' personal to SU, but me no like this one too much. It was hard to color and the things I tried to do with it didn't work. I know -crafter's error.
I tried crystal effects all over it and it just smeared the ink. I wanted to give the shiny globe effect. So, I redid one and used clear embossing powder on the holder, house and trees. Sprinkled the rest with dazzling diamonds. I wanted to use flower soft for the snow, but I always end up making a big mess. I popped up the new version over the old version on dimensionals and popped up the whole nestie panel on dimensionals. Sponged around nestie and fancy tag. Heat embossed sentiment and added bling around the larger nestie. Used the MS PATP for the snowflake panel. That's about it. I don't know if I'll venture using this one again. I'm sure it can be done well, but I wasn't likin' it too much.
Thanks for taking a look and have a great day!

Thanks for your honest opinion, Pamzi. I don't even remember this image from SU! But I've kind of gotten away from them, and am using many other stamp companies now.
Anyway, sorry you had so much trouble just getting this image to work out. It really does look sweet, and caught my eye right away from the thumbnail in your gallery. I say a job well done, even if it took more trouble!
