The main focus of the illustrated card is a piece of artwork -- " Boy in a Bubble" -- created entirely on the computer using photographs, photo objects, and graphics software. Originally larger, it's been reduced to ATC size, printed on semi-gloss inkjet photo paper, cut out, then glued to a piece of card stock.
A piece of paper brushed over with gel medium is pressed briefly onto the card to give it texture. The brushstrokes in the gel create a kind of wood grain effect on part of the globe base. You can even see some of my fingerprints in the gel too. A rubber stamp with metallic ink is stamped around the perimeter. A few drops of glitter glue are added to some of the snowflakes.
