Tilda X 2 Christmas Card

Today I have a card to show you that I have been making for the last couple of days, it is an 8x8 Octagonal Pearl card which started off as an A3 Centura Pearlescent card, I used one of my boards to emboss the shape.
The papers are from Bearly Mine Designs, Simply Dots and Christmas Wishes sets.
I used the same board to emboss the design of the smaller Octagons then mounted them onto gold linen textured card, the large Octagon I have used gold stickers around the edge.
I used Marianne die cuts for the snowflakes and tree, the central shape is a felt embellishment that I bought a while ago.  The brown snowflakes I used a similar brown felt. I have used two Tilda's a large one and one of my mini ones, the sentiment is also an older stamp from many moons ago.
Finally I added spotty ribbon, flower and pearls.
For the first time ever I have actually completed the inside of a card I used the same paper as on the front of the card, I had stamped another larger Tilda cut her out and put her on the inside with the verse.  The Tilda images have all been coloured with promarkers.
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
Many thanks for visiting see you soon

What a great card sweetie. Fab layout. I never seem to think of cutting my embellishments out of different things other than card or glitter card you are a clever girl and put thought into things. Also good in making your insert.
