A non-traditional Christmas

Good morning all!

Well, it's official, it's autumn! Well, in my book anyway :) Another month means another CCAYR challenge, our theme for October is "Use Non-Traditional Christmas image or colour scheme". I seemed to manage to do both!

Here's my card:



Materials:
* Create & Craft CS
* Studio Light Decoupage image
* Studio Light DPs
* Victorian Velvet Distress Ink
* Eline's Winter Huis Stamp Set
* Ribbon, pearls and snow flake peel-off from stash

What do you think, Christmassy enough? I think so! Why not join us, I think it's a great challenge theme! Besides, you do have a whole month to link up :)

Challenges:
* Jingle Belles (Dashing Through the Snow)
* Guylou Inimitality (Weather)
* Crafty Ribbons (Anything but Square)
* Crafting for All Seasons (Things with Wings)
