Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas challenge 461 - make your own background

Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas challenge 461 - anything Christmas with optional theme make your own background
http://craftyhazelnutschristmaschallenge.blogspot.com/


I tried to make a Bokeh background using distress inks and moonlight white brilliance ink.  I tried to follow the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=koYNlMOBRnc  which is on Corrie Berriman's blog which she made for the Country View October challenge
I don't have circle stencil so I punched circles in a card to use.
Stamped Stamp It stamp Holly's Christmas and coloured with marker and gel pens.
Stamped Happy Christmas

I hope you will go over and see the lovely work by the design team and join in the challenge.

I would like to add my card to the following:
