My card for the magazine inspiration challenge

My room is still a mess but I was able to make this very simple card tonight. I used the round shapes on the magazine page for my inspiration as well as the background color. The snowflakes are glittery but it's hard to tell from the picture. Also I just got this new lens (today) and I'm still getting used to it. I forgot to switch my ISO after I had been doing some playing so it's a bit grainy. This proves that no matter how good or expensive your lens is, you might still take crappy pictures because you're just a bad photographer. lol. Anyway the cardstock is Stampin' Up Baja Blue, patterned paper from Imaginisce, ink is Stampin Up Whisper White, OLD heat and stick embossing powder from somewhere, Stampin' Up Dazzling Diamonds glitter, white Paper Trey Ink cardstock, Cuttlebug embossing folder (snowflakes), Stampin' Up circle punches.
