OWH VCMP CHallenge - Winter 2 ways

JoAnn has a great challenge - 2 cards!  One for Christmas, one for winter. 

Here are mine:

I struggled with these, but I am pleased with my results.  Stash brads for the toppers, sequin and satin ribbons for the vertical elements.  Star paper embossed with Sizzix embossing folder, DCWV Winter Magic striped paper.

Thanks, JoAnn!  Great thought starter!
