"D" is for... at Digital Pencil Too

Hi everyone! Ready for Christmas? I know I'm not although I long for spending it with my family. It always seems to be here too early and preparations are never ready either.
I have one of the many Christmas cards to show you today. Our challenge theme for this week at Mo's DP2 is


Well, I admit I haven't been very creative with this one; so I went for die-cuts, the easiest item to add to a card:

Embellishments: Wild Orchid Crafts and IAM Roses flowers, bells from Cart Us, beads from stash
Misc: Snow Marker- Uchida, diamond stickles

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
Christmas at Sweet Stampin' -Anything Christmas Goes, Freshly Brewed -Christmas, Papercraft Star -christmas tree, Stampavie and More -Christmas, Crafty Sentiments -Snowflakes, Deep Ocean Challenge -Christmas, Top Tip Tuesday -Christmas, Craft Your Passion -Stitching , There's Magic in the Air -Snowman or Anything Christmas, Craft a Scene -Winter Scene
