Crafty Calendar Challenge - Leaves and Lace

Good Afternoon to all.  We're in September already and it's the first Saturday in the month so today we have a new challenge over at Crafty Calendar and the theme for this month is Lace and Leaves.

This theme would suggest something Autumnal but I decided on a Christmas themed project.

For my card I have used:
Poinsettia by Artbymiran - I had a go at a different technique with this card, I printed the image onto linen effect textured card and coloured with Coloursoft & Koh-i-noor pencils.  Quite like the result, will definitely use this technique again.
The DP's are from the Dovecraft Krafty Christmas paper pack.


I'm entering this card into the following challenges:

ABC Christmas Challenge - Red Poinsettia
Artbymiran Challenge - Anything goes
Sister Act Card Challenge - Anything Goes
Paper Creators Crafts - Early Christmas
Crafting At The Weekend - Anything goes


We are sponsored for this challenge by 



Pop over to Crafty Calendar to join us in this months challenge and to check out the gorgeous DT creations.

Thanks for stopping by.
