Indigo, ice and inspiration

This card is for ABC Christmas challenge I for indigo, ice and inspiration - this photo inspiration was given:

It's also for the sketch given for Paper pretties 152:

The base card is stardream, which has a lovely sparkly look to it. The stitched paper is an offcut from long ago (no, I didn't stitch it), mounted on silver mirror card. The strip across the middle and the sentiment are from an old QVC kit and the snowflakes were rescued from an old card, with the addition of Poundland gems in the centres, so this is also for Bah! humbug 18: going green (the recycled snowflakes).



This is also for:

I did it: monochromatic
Creative inspirations 59: glitzy & bling
Do more with less: stitching with Alice Wertz
Scrappy frogs: anything goes
Flourish timeless 117: anything goes
