I did this card with three challenges in mind - CCC10 (the monthly Christmas Card Challenge), CAS56 (It's Hip to be Square), and IC221 (Inspiration Challenge based on a figure skater's costume). The skater's costume I chose for inspiration is Tessa Virtue's gold medal winning performance at the 2010 Olympics - described as "a simple white gown with a bodice decorated with silver sequins":
The card stock and paper is a shimmery cold white. I used Cuttlebug's Snowflakes to emboss the background, stamped the snowflake in silver and embossed with transparent glittery EP, and embossed the centre panel with an irregular edge of ink and EP to try to capture the look of a frosty window pane.
