Tonight's card was inspired by three challenges: 1) the Jingle Belles Pink Christmas... For the Cure, 2) the Merry Making Online Card Class Day 1 Lesson, and 3) the current CAS-ual Friday Sketch Challenge.
Although it may not look like it in the pic, the snowflakes are embossed in a light pink (glittery) powder. I added some seedless preserve coloring to pop the pink elements, including the snowflakes. For the background, I used a little of Kristina's bokeh effect... along with a stamping technique shared by Jennifer a few weeks ago... along with a little experimentation of my own. While I don't typically use pink on holiday cards, this really turned out well.
