What I Built

I created a clean and neat winter-themed design by styling an HTML page using CSS. The goal was to enhance the pageโ€™s appearance while keeping it visually appealing, responsive, and well-organized. By applying modern CSS techniques, I made sure the page looks polished and cohesive, perfectly capturing the essence of the winter season.
