52 Christmas Card Countdown - a theme challenge to use holly - so I used a holly dp and holly on my stamp.
Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge - no sentiment.
Winter Wonderland - "Red and Green Must Be Seen" - my card is mostly red and green, other than a bit of blue for the sky in the tiny centre circle.
SCS's Christmas Card Challenge - for my September quota and to fulfill September's special challenge of "falling snow" - if you look very closely at the little centre image, there is snow falling onto the house.
I coloured the stamped image with coloured pencils and went over the snow on the roof, the tree, the ground, and the falling snow with a Stardust pen.
The card is 5.5" x 3.5".

Susan, your card has a wonderful old-fashioned appeal...don't know if it is the holly, the scene or the DP....but all together they give a wonderful nostalgic feeling. A beautiful card.
