Sweet angel and pink poinsettias - Bugaboo CIJ day 6

It's time for my favorite event - over at Catch the Bug we're celebrating Christmas in July. One week, 7 challenges, lots of prizes to be won. And there's 50% off all images in the Bugaboo store. For day 6 we have a color challenge:

I used my new stencil from Tim Holtz, and old Christmas sentiment in Norwegian and the versatile Sweet Angel from Bugaboo. Lots of silver liquid pearls and I used my new and favorite stitched die from MFT.

This card is also for:
ABC Christmas Challenge - "N" is for New/"O" is for Old
Glitter n Sparkle - #248 Anything Goes
Crafting With An Attitude - Anything Goes
Christmas at Sweet Stampin' -  Anything Goes Christmas

    Love the stencilling on your background Pia, great work, interesting colours which work for a Christmas card..
    ... oh and that optical illusion dress?? It's turned.. weirdly still gold at top, blue where was white and grey at lower ends of gold, it's now evening not daytime so guess that's all relevant weird eh??
    Thanks so much for sharing,.

    So pretty! Love the colour combo and I like the way you've placed the angel so we get to see all that lovely stencilling.

    Soooo sweet! Love your stenciled background and the wonky stitch, this is a die that I have to buy. The cute angel is just perfect with that lovely big sentiment. I have to learn to make this style of card, love it!
