Christmas, rustic style

My tradition is to make most of our Christmas cards using the same image, and my personal challenge is to make it work for lots of challenges - for several months!  This time I used a brown, beige and orange striped DP from the Heirloom collection by DCWV.  The image is a digi from qKR Stampede, with burnt orange sponging.  I added some burnt orange sequins; embossing on the shimmery champagne cs and a scallop punched edge above the image.  This card will be sent to a family member.
Sketch, with the left column tic-tac-toe:  Share Joy
technique - embossing:   Holly Jolly Challenge
Christmas, with orange:    Christmas Cards all Year Round
Celebrate (Christmas):    Creatalicious
Any:    Snowflakes Promise
