Winter, Through the Window

**Serendipity has a new Challenge Blog...this week's theme is Winter Birthday, a great prize of $20 off your next order could get you some beautiful stamps...check it out here**

Last August I made this card using Serendipity Stamps Bare Tree stamp.  Since the season has changed I thought it would be fun to do a series of seasonal window cards using the same image.  Today I have Winter's card...using the exact same layout and image but with colors more appropriate for Winter.
This one only has one tree because I wanted to have enough room to add some lacey, glittery snow to the base.  The die is Border Carnivale by Cheery Lynn.  The glitter is Martha Stewart course glitter.  I picked up the patterned paper yesterday at Michaels.  It's from Recollections and is called Love Amour Amor.  Lots and lots of pretty patterns to choose from.  I used a fiscars border punch and only kept the little hearts that were left after I punched the pattern.  The branch is Martha Stewart Pine Branch and the sentiment is from Serendipity Stamps (Everyday words small, horizontal).  I already have a good idea for my Spring card but no idea what to do with Summer.  Any ideas for me?
