A gem of a challenge with love at christmas

Hey everyone it's challenge time again at a gem of a challenge and this card has been waiting in the wings for a bit as I made this for a previous DT project and realised I hadn't followed the sketch at all duh so it became the perfect candidate for this new challenge "christmas with love" so a xmas card with hearts somewhere.

I used some xmas papers from my stash, along with a large heart doily from Poppyscabin, my chiffon ribbon, pearls and sparkly heart candy candy are from stash, my flowers are wild orchids and my sentiment is waltzingmouse.

My sweet image is one of the new Pink Gem designs xmas range coloured with Prismas, edged in dusty concord and machine stitched.

I loved making this card, such a fan of non traditional xmas colours! I have some new yummy xmas papers too so maybe I will feel inspired to make some more xmas cards!
I am a bit challenge light as I haven't been keeping up this wk but would like to enter this into Cute card thursday animal crackers, Stamp and doodle pets, Crafty purple frog layers and crafts 4 eternity anything goes.
Thanks so much for coming by my blog again, I promise to get by more of your blogs next wk!
