I was surprised by how low this finished. I'm wondering if this and my Puns entries were hurt by being Christmas-related subjects. People seem to punish anything they are remotely tired of seeing.

Another undeserved low ball score...I just love the color and soft shimmering of the silver glitter...so pretty.

I like the background, but there's something about the snowflake itself that I can't quite put my finger on. Perhaps overly sharpened? I wonder how this would look with the shadow a bit darker, more black than gray.

Seems quite dark for something that should be sparkly.
