A gem of a challenge WOW & a new xmas release!

Hi Folks, sorry I'm a bit late this morning with my post for a gem of a challenge, I had a busy night with friends last night as a few of my work buddies are moving onto different things and saying goodbye so we had a little (long) drink for them!
Better late than never though so here I am with a WOW (white on white) card for our new challenge. There is a chance to win 6 digis from PGD this time!

I have used this fab new release Chloe stamp from Pink gem designs, just perfect for wintery and xmas cards she will be available soon but there is 20% off digis currently if you can't wait to create! My backing paper is white textured with embossed snowflakes. I have followed the sketch over at the deconstructed sketch for my card.

I have coloured my image with prismas and have used stickles and glamour dust on her white fluffy elements. I have used a heart doily from poppys cabin, butterfly from e crafts, poinsettia and lace from wild orchids, sentiment from waltzingmouse and ribbon and pearls from stash.

I would also like to enter this into Simon says stamp xmas in Aug, crafts and me anything goes, cute card thurs no DP, paperplay xmas in Aug and Charisma bingo (flowers, pearls and glitter).
Thanks tonnes for coming by my blog so much, my apologies for not getting round to as many of you as I would normally like, it's just a wee bit busy round here at the mo! Seriously you should all see my conservatory, where once just sat my dining table and chairs now sits the same table and chairs, 2 single mattresses, 1 kingsize mattress, a single 4 poster bed and single wooden bed with guest bed, a kingsize sleigh bed, a pink desk (all of those are boxed lol) and also now 2 massive rolls of underlay, there is also a mini sofa in the hall! I can't wait for our carpet to be fitted in the loft next thursday so we can move some furniture out upstairs!
Hugs all

Hi Rebekah, Beautiful card! I love this image and the pretty arrangement of flowers really adds the finishing touch.

I really feel for you with all the upheaval at home but it will be worth it in the end.

Hi Rebekah, what a gorgeous card. I really like the WOW look, but I can't always seem to get it look good - you've done it brilliantly. Your colouring is just wonderful. Sounds like the final throes of your loft conversion - just remember that the last couple of weeks are always terrible, but it is worth it when the work is finished and you see the final results! Hope it all goes smoothly for you. Sarah PS Glad you liked the card!

Hi Sweetie, I love your card. The white back ground really makes this precious image pop. And the colors you chose for her is gorgeous. I love the white on white. I have a really hard time with this technique but your card sure inspired me to take on that challenge. Thanks for the inspiration.
Sounds like your house is a little crazy right now. Oh I know you must be going crazy with everything in disarray but it's going to be Gorgeous!!!! I can't wait to see it.
I still have a Bday pressie here for you. I just need to put it all together and now that I'm starting to feel better I'll try and get to it when my DT cards are done. I hate getting behind. I'm sure you can totally relate.
Big huge hugs Bonnie
