The centerpiece is two snowflakes, one cut from snippets of vellum, the other white cardstock, layered on a dark blue square. (The die is a little Sizzix one I picked up at the craft consignment sale, and truth is it's seen better days.) Behind that are four squares of my favorite snowflake paper (also snippets, I'm down to just a little of that pattern).
The sketch here is from Catch the Bug; I finished the card with some snowflake ribbon and a sentiment in Night of Navy.
