Christmas Card - Day 1

Hello Everyone!!!
As we all know Christmas is just around the corner; I have finally started working on my Christmas cards. Here is the 1st one for you all.

The background is created using Distress Ink Mini inkpads and Ranger Tim Holtz Mini Ink Blending Tool. Colors used are listed in supplies. The snowflake is die-cut using Simon Says Stamp Nadine Snowflake Die. I die-cut it 3 times and stuck them together to make it sturdy. Then I adhered the snowflake to the background using foam tape & embellished using rhinestones. Finally the sentiment is a combination of 2 different stamps from Hampton Art & Hero Arts.

I'm submitting this card to 3 challenges: CAS-ual Fridays #146, Just us Girls #322, Inkspirational Challenges #97
