Card for Two Challenges

Good Evening Ladies, well you might ask why Ive created a Christmas Card here, well there is a reason, Ive been entering Pops "Santa on Sunday" on Facebook and this weeks challenge is "All White" so Im cheating here and will also use this card for two other Challenges Crafters Companion "Sketch by Jacqui" and Stampin for the Weekends "Getting Warmed Up" Im hoping they will let me get away with that with this image as this little lad is well wrapped up, so you could call that warmed up I suppose or at least lets hope so.
This is a 6"x 6" white card with a first layer of white card and several snowflakes that have been embossed with white, glitter and holographic embossing powder, the second is a white pearlescent card which has been run through my cuttlebug with a spot embossing folder, Ive then wrapped a white satin ribbon around the middle.
The mounted image which is one of the Crafters Companion Cute Adorables from Jayne Nesterenko, and Ive coloured it with my copic pens, then cut it out with a circle Nestabilitie Die, and mounted this white Pearlescent card, the sentiment is another from the same set of stamps. To finish of Ive created a large snowflake with my Martha Stewart punches then dipped them in crushed glass glitter before layering them up on my card in the top left hand corner.
This card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-
