What a fun challenge, Esther! Once again, your card is stunning and loaded with fine details that capture my eye. The tiny detail of the doodling around the globe is so subtle yet adds so much to the entire design. Love it!

Wonderful! thanks for the great inspiration for this DCC. Happy New Year!
This is just stunning, fabulous globe and scene and I like how you embellished with the evergreen, pine cone and the twine! Great choice for DCC!
Esther this is beautiful!! Love all the details!
Fun challenge and fabulous snow globe card! What a great idea to create the card in the shape of the globe.
Great scene inside the globe and I love the wood base you gave to it and the pinecones and greenery at that bottom with the twine is a great touch!
I love your snowglobe, Esther, the addition of the pinecone and pine sprig on the outside is lovely! Thanks for playing with us at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge!
What a great globe. What a cool scene and nice coloring. Thanks so much for entering your lovely card into our 'Anything Goes with a Handmade Bow' challenge at Craft-Dee BowZ this month. I look forward to seeing what you create for our next challenge. Hugs, Barbara
Greatcard - and using the snow globe for our card base - what a good idea. I sort of had to think a little bit as I didn't have a snow globe but I see I wasn't the only one that went "out of the box". So much detail in your snowglobe.
Oh, such a wonderful card with the snow globe, so pretty! Thanks so much for joining us at Dies R Us for the challenge!
What a lovely shaped card! Wonderful scene you created. Fantastic texture too. Thanks for joining us at Little Red Wagon.
What a beauty! I love the globe! Thanks for joining us at Tuesday Throwdown!
