Here is my take on the new sketch, SC406. I used one of the (very) soon-to-be released Christmas sets from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps!
I didn't feel like coloring, so I stamped the images on green and red card stock, then fussy cut them. The flower has 3 layers, so it's nice and dimensional. I did some light shading with Copics.
Stamps: Poinsettias clear stamp set (Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps)
Paper: Kraft (The Paper Company), Chocolate Chip, Old Olove, Riding Hood Red (SU!), White and music sheet (misc)
Ink: Tuxedo Black Memento (Adirondack), Chocolate Chip ink pad and Stampin' Write Marker (SU!), Red and Green Copic Markers
Access: seam binding ribbon, pearls, stickles, stick pins, clothes pin, cheese cloth
Tools: Labels 18 die (Spellbinders), Finishing Touches Edgelits (SU!), 1-1/4" Circle punch (SU!), Sponge Dauber (SU!), Bow Easy

Love all the embelishments you have used in your card. Never would have thought to use them all but they work!
