Christmas Cards all year around: first GDT post: Anything Christmas goes

Morning all! I hope you are all well and happy? I'm feeling good and starting to feel much more like myself now things are back to the regular routine - which is handy!!!!

Today I've got another new design team - its a 6month GDT term for me with christmascardsallyearround - its a monthly blog challenge - so not too much stress - but perfect for those of you wanting to be organised for Christmas next year - go on - you know you love playing with Christmas crafty goodies. The challenge this week is nice and simple - anything goes - but its got to be Christmas! I've made a quick card using one of the Christmas images from Willow Designs - here it is:



Such a cute stamp - I've coloured with promarkers and teamed my card with poinsettia vellum, a bow and the sentiment which is an LOTV christmas grunge one.

I'd like to enter my card into the following challenges:

inkychicks Anything goes
