This is my entry for today's sketch challenge - I took the double dare - and today's Alphabet challenge where this week the technique is Bokeh.
I modified the easel card to be a regular A2 size by starting with a 4 1/4 x 11 base and trimming the swing part with a 3/4 border.
For the bokeh background, I started with white cs and sponged Balmy Blue, Pacific Point, and Highland Heather inks on. Then added craft white circles of the top. I love this technique, it gives it such a dreamy effect.
I die cut the large focal snowflake three times with the top layer being white glitter paper and added some of the same glitter paper around the frame. Then I decided that was too plain and added the snowflake sequins.
For my sentiment, I stamped it and then used the Word Window punch in a modified way so it would work with this longer sentiment. I did the same with the Modern Label punch used to mat the sentiment - which is popped up with dimensionals.
Thanks for the challenges and thank for looking!

This fold is so effective in showcasing your BIG snowflake. And making it fit A2 is just going the extra mile to make it extra special. Thanks for sharing your talent.
