These are both so gorgeous, I love this image (it's on my wishlist lol) and it's so nice to see it done in the two different colour schemes, I always think it's amazing how different the same image can look in different colours. Gorgeous papers and layouts too, love the blingy snowflake on the blue one

Sandra, both cards are lovely, and it's hard to choose, but my favourite is the red and green one because I like the traditional colour combo.
