Good morning all.
It's time for our fortnightly Christmas Card Club challenge again and this time the theme was set by Christine who gave us "Winter Wonderland".
Stamp is from Wild Rose Studio and I've coloured with promarkers and used stickles to highlight before die cutting. Dies from Spellbinders. Backing paper is also from Wild Rose Studio and was a magazine freebie (think the stamp was possibly too). Embossed panel is pearlised paper and the embossing board was another magazine freebie. Sentiment stamp from Anita's Stamps. Ribbons, gems and poinsettia from my stash.
All finished inside too!
Do pop over to see the rest of the gang's creations, their links are on my sidebar.

Carol, this is a darling image (at first I thought it was LOTV! Fun to discover it is a Wild Rose image, as those are available in the USA). Love the cheery Christmas colors, and the ribbon poinsettia was a lovely embellishment. The glistening snow on the trees showed up very sparkling. TFS & Hugs.

Your card is sweet with such a pretty colourway. I love how you have used so many freebies to make it. I like to use freebies as much as possible to help keep costs down. Having said that I really need to splash out and buy a fancy oval die as my spelllbinders are all oblongs and squares! Thanks for your kind words. Off to the Drs shortly. It's no fun getting a bad attack at the weekends when I only have standard remedies in the cupboard. Hugs Mrs A.
