Four identical white snowflake icons arranged in a 2x2 grid on solid red background. Each snowflake has six arms with pixelated edges; the left-center and right-center snowflakes show slightly more blurred or distorted pixels compared to top-left and bottom-left. Black text 'let it snow' appears above each snowflake, with 'let' stacked vertically over 'it', which is stacked vertically over 'snow'.
