I have been having so much fun with the challenges over at The House That Stamps Built and this latest one was right up my alley. I love making non traditional Christmas cards maybe because it is the height of summer here in Australia and I like cool colours or in this case I love the colour mauve.
This is the link to follow to see what gorgeous cards talented the design team made and also check out the entries.

Products I used for this card
- Mauve card base topped with a lighter coloured mauve paper which I scored.
- The irredescent cream card stock was embossed with a Christmas Holiday Cuttlebug Folder.
- The poinsettia is from Spellbinders in an irredescent mauve.
- Added MS fern and Marianne die flourish.
- Spellbinders Label stamped with Gina K stamp.
- Cream backing on lace.
- Rhinestones positioned around the flower and sentiment.
- Lightly sprayed with silver mist to add a little bit more sparkle.
