Divas by design Merry christmas challenge

Please check out my post below for my creative inspirations card.....
Hello! Yes I'm late again! But this is our last challenge over at Divas by design for this year so I had to join in! We will be running this challenge for 4 wks and there is also a DT call going on so check it out!
Our challenge is also nice and simple "merry christmas", yes I am still making last minute christmas cards! I may have to throw together some specially simple ones with some SU stamps later as I am fast running out!
We are sponsored over the next 4 wks by 2 fabby sponsors, Stitchy bear and Delicious doodles so there are 2 prizes up for grabs! I have made a card using this wonderful image from the Stitchy bear store called the magic of Christmas isn't it fab?

I have used my minds eye holly jolly papers again along with some cheescloth and ribbon from stash. My flowers are mostly wild orchids and my right hand stick pin (green) is handmade by me but the left is one of the wonderful Traceys stick pins, she has the most fabulous stuff on her etsy shop!

My beautiful image has been coloured with prisma pencils and I have added some glamour dust to the star and candles for a little sparkle. The postage marks around the edge are LOTV and the little flourishes are Waltzingmouse. my edges have been distressed with antique photo ink and all layers have been machine stitched.

I would like to enter this into OSAAT use a digi, Dream valley christmas, Hooked on craft challenges christmas, Kaboodle doodles holidays, Paper sundaes anything christmas, Lollipop crafts happy holidays and my time to craft vintage xmas.
Thanks so much for coming by my blog again, please do check out the rest of the teams wonderful creations at the challenge blog and you have 4 wks to join in!
Big hugs
