Here is my card for the scramble, our parameters were snowflake, blue (and neutrals) and make it a tag card(shape).
I am not quite ready for Winter/Holiday crafting yet, so I choose a cheeky sentiment. I used stormy sky distress ink on a white tag which had been dry embossed with a sizzix folder. I colored the tops of some of the embossed bumps with a white gel pen. My Hero Arts snowflakes were embossed with white Hero Arts embossing powder on black cardstock to make them stand out. I also heat embossed the sentiment and die cut letters.
As a celebration of my 1 year of blogging (September) and my 200th post I have some blog candy. Please leave a comment let me know what you like most about blogging...or just surfing blogs. I will pick 2 people from the comments submitted through 11:59PM EST Friday 11-8-13, for the blog candy. (I will ship internationally.) I will post winners on Saturday 11-9-13.
I extend my heartfelt thanks to those of you that stop by to visit and to those that take time to leave me such encouraging comments.

What a sweet tag, Cat! I love blue and I love snowflakes - a perfect combination.
Blogging is a great way to make new friends, get lots of inspiration and also stretch my limited creativity. There are so many talented gals out there in blogland and I love seeing what they do with the same stamps, dies and supplies we all have. Congrats on your 200th post!!
I love the inspiration I get from blog surfing. I always learn something new.
Congrats, Cat! Loved your unique tag when I saw it for the scramble--very creative! My favorite thing about blogging is making friends who share my love of cardmaking. A few years ago I would not have believed you could become friends with people you never see, but boy was I wrong!
congrats on your 200th post - loved your entry for the scramble - very creative - and also so fun that your post was for my first scramble.
great idea for the sentiment and snowflake. First time here, but I love my HA peeps--so creative--so I'll be back. I love seeing how people do things differently than I do. I'm not great at shabby chic or graphic/geometrical (is that a word?) so it's cool to see it done well.
Congrats Cat! I am very excited to be a part of that same wonderful group and also totally LOVE the Scrambles! This tag is awesome and I also want to wish you a very Happy Blog Anniversary!! Keep up the great work!!
What a lovely tag card! Congrats on your first year of blogging! Fun isn't it? I love connecting with like minded crafty people and blogging really helps with that. :-). Here's to another fun year!
Congrats Cat on your 200th post and first year of blogging, may you achieve lots more success in the years ahead! Even though I don't have my own blog, this craft allows for making of so many friends. That's very special:-)!

Hi Cat! Congrats on your 200th post! I must say that I echo your feelings about the HA Flickr group and all the really sweet girls I've met there! If not for their encouragement, I would never have started my blog as well, and I am really enjoying it! A blog is such a great place to share your creations and stay in touch with crafty friends, which I think is my favorite part :-)
I love how you created a 'shadow' for your snowflakes and your embossed background is perfect for your tag! Love your clever sentiment, too!
Also, I wanted to thank you for your suggestion to call Silhouette...Great idea! In fact, I will do that today, and who knows, maybe it will work out :-)
Happy 200th post! Sorry I'm so late to the party! Your tag is very cute! Love how it's a card too! I don't think I've ever seen one like that!
Beautiful tag card, Cat! Congrats on your 200th Blog Post and first year of blogging - that is quite an achievement! So happy for you!
