Casual Fridays Sketch Challenge

I made the card in this post using this week's challenge sketch over at Casual Fridays When presented with a nice, simple, clean sketch it's easy to come up with creative ideas, I chose to make a Christmas card for the challenge: There was a time I would not use brown on a Christmas card, I'm happy that time has passed. I like adding brown, it give's the card a more earthy feel. Items used: Stampin Up Christmas tree stamp, Basic Grey DP, gold gems and ribbon.

Very pretty. The brown works. I lke the rickrack in the background with the gold bling.
