Christmas Snowflake Card: Spellbinders'/JustRite Style

Because I need more Christmas cards, because I LOVE the way Becca Feeken created her snowflake, and because I love this paper and this sentiment, I had to create a card with these elements today!
Snowflake Detail
I've had this DCWV paper for at least two years and recently purchased Spellbinders' Create a Flake Three, but didn't really like the die -- until I saw Becca's take on it! Like her, I cut the snowflake die in white CS, silver glittered CS and blue CS, layered them with silver on the bottom, then blue, and then white, slightly offset, then gently pulled the silver & blue points up over the white. Once done, I gave my blue points a twist to the right, slightly offsetting the three colors, and added a sparkly Recollections snowflake gem.
My sentiment is from a set of clear stamps by The Craft Lounge that stamp so beautifully -- LOVE them! It is stamped & embossed on a JustRite Nested Frames & Sentiments die. The bottom edge consists of two Spellbinders Classic Postage Stamp and Classic Scallop Edgeabilities dies and underneath a strip of the same Core'dinations glitter paper used on my snowflake and sentiment edges! Lastly, I ran 1/4" Scor-Tape across my card & covered it with Martha Stewart's White Gold glitter. LOVE that stuff, thanks to Tim Holtz recommendation!
