Less is more week 24 Circles

Definitely running a bit late this week, I think I was all crafted out from the weekend and had no inspiration for this week's LIM challenge. The challenge being circles, which seems remarkably simple but hey ho, not so!!
Anyway I finally decided to do a Christmas card as I haven't done any for a while:)
I used a La Blanche stamp, which stamps in a semi circle and just used a gray pen to complete the circle. I glittered to enhance the snowy effect and mounted on to silver mirri. I punched circles out down the side and punched mirri with the same punch and adhered them under the cut outs. The sentiment was also mounted on to mirri. Not particularly happy with this submission but at least it's one more for Christmas!

    Often the simplest of themes turn out to be not so simple but I like the way you've done this circle card. That is a lovely stamp too and the grey ink is just right, more subtle than black
