Beccy's Place GDT Card

Here's my second card as GDT for Beccy's Place, I really love this image as it's a bit different to most stocking images.  This one is decidedly more grown up then most, so I decided to go with a fairly muted, elegant colour combo.  It's available in Beccy's digi shop as of today.
I've had these Papermania papers lurking in my stash for ages, so this was the perfect chance to use up the last few sheets in the pack, I'm down to part used sheets now!  I really love the olive green with the grey, mulberry and pink.  I kept the layout fairly simple, adding a bit of interest with a Martha Stewart border punch and a Papermania foiled sentiment.  I echoed the poinsettias on the stockings by making some as embellishments using Nellie Snellen punches.  A ribbon, bow and a few olive pearls finish it off.
I'm entering this card in the following challenges -
Christmas Stamping All Year Long - #36 - anything goes
One Stop Craft - anything goes
Simply Create Too - #26 - use your stash, I used old papers
Papercrafting Journey - anything goes
Stamp 'n' Doodle - use a digi
Kaboodle Doodles - #145 - use plaid
