This is my entry to Ice Queen's beautiful challenge 'snow fun'.
Firstly, i am so glad i made it just in time... time is flying so fast ... i hadn't realized it was December 31 already!

Now for the Explanation:
This wallpaper took quite some time, even though it doesn't look like it because i couldn't decide on the filters and the main image of sakura because in the main image she has red and yellow colors and i just felt it would look more wintery if she were in blue shades.

Finally, this is the image i used (red and yellow one) Sakura
This is actually from a artbook but i can't find it there so i did a tin-eye search to get this.

As for the background i used 3 images
Planet
Snow castle
Snowy landscape

For other effects
Motion blur effects
Standard ps7 brushes
Font is Microsoft standard package
