The default animation duration of 30s on .bauble-flake is always overridden by the individual .f-* selectors (lines 3007-3018) which specify durations ranging from 17s-28s. Consider removing the redundant 30s duration from the base .bauble-flake class to avoid confusion.

The snowflake animation continuously transforms elements from -20px to 250px vertically every 17-30 seconds. This could impact performance, especially on lower-end devices. Consider:
- Using CSS
will-change: transformon.bauble-flaketo optimize rendering - Pausing animations when the card is not visible using Intersection Observer API
- Reducing the number of animated elements (currently 12 snowflakes)

The decorative snowflakes and winter scene are created using empty divs with no semantic meaning or alternative text. This content is purely decorative and should be hidden from screen readers using aria-hidden="true" on the .bauble-scene container to avoid confusing users with assistive technologies who will encounter 12+ empty elements.
