This is for today's color challenge -- Basic Gray, Purely Pomegranate and Soft Sky -- great colors!!! And yes, my Christmas tree is gray!!! It reminded me of those artificial silver trees I remember from my childhood -- I used to think they were so beautiful -- LOL!!!
I used this fun, natural looking Christmas tree from the set by Flourishes called O Christmas Tree and the image is stamped onto Shimmer White Paper, also available at Flourishes. The angel, decorations, pot and gift box are all highlighted with a Sakura Stardust Gelly Roll Pen in Silver and it looks just gorgeous and so shimmery IRL, but this is one of those cards I just could not get a decent picture of -- the main image panel just looks really bad in the photo compared to IRL -- but since I took the time to make it, I'll upload and play along!!! I'm such a sucker for these challenges, I'll even risk embarrassing myself with a really bad photo -- LOL!!!
ETA: I just edited to change the photo, but it isn't showing on my monitor yet. The new photo is clearer, but the colors are more *off*.

I'm sure the pic doesn't due your card justice, however, it's not bad at all--you have captured the beauty of your card and that's the truth because I love it! The individual ornaments are just wonderful and the little scene is precious! I also think your choice of ribbon and that little gem are gorgeous touches! Beautiful holiday card!
