Color Throwdown 16

Wow, this week's challenge was really a challenge for me: Ballet Blue, Green Galore, Creamy Caramel & Chocolate Chip. Still not sure about this card but I just couldn't come up with anything that really floated my snowflake! I wanted to play with some stamps that had never seen the ink of day, and I pulled out some Impression Obsession winter ones. I already had an assortment of other snowflake stamps out, so I went with that theme:

You can't tell from the photo, but the snowflakes at top are stamped in craft white, then brushed with white/gold Pearlex. The bottom snowflake is heat embossed with white EP. The blue snowflake is a Martha Stewart punch. The word collage and the "Brr" are from the Impression Obsession set; the fun thing about clear stamps are that you can "bend" them to make a fun run like this! The snowflake centers are glitter dots from Gina K.
