OLW snowflakes

Since I still need more Holiday cards, I decided to make one for the One Layer Wednesday challenge "Snowflakes. The big snowflake and the sentiment are Inkadinkadoo, the little snowflakes are from Rubber Soul. I masked the center strip and sponged around it. And, as so often a little Stickles for sparkle.

Just found this challenge at the Paper Players, for which this card fits as well.

I love how the masked strip makes the snowflakes feel like they're falling from the sky!
