The things I changed on my card are: I used a different stamp set, different ribbon, my sponged background is a bit different, and I used slightly different colors of blue.
I made a mask by cutting a large rectangle using my Coluzzle template. Then I took the mask and placed it over my card and I began sponging using Bashful Blue ink.
The rest was pretty easy. I just started stamping my snowflakes using Bashful Blue, Brocade Blue, and Night of Navy ink (the Night of Navy ink was stamped off onto a piece of scrap paper first).
I added some bling gem stones to the center of the larger snowflakes. I tied my ribbon with some SU silver cording. Then I took the ends of the cording and I tied them together in the center of the knot in my ribbon. I'm still deciding if I like the way my ribbon treatment turned out. For some reason my ribbon looks a lot darker in my picture than it really is.

Very pretty! I love this look. In fact, your gallery is great - it's super how much white you leave in your cards. I need to be less afraid to do this! tee hee...
