Christmas card with a loving couple

Some years ago I received this beautiful paper with 12 vintage images as an advent calendar gift from my mum.
This is the 5th card, I think the loving couple fit the spirit of Valentine's Day, though the card is meant for Christmas:)

I went with gold as the primary color.
There's mainly gold colors on the DP, it came free with a magazine and I think it was a set from Bo Bunny. I cut out the sentiment strip from another DP. I used matte gold cardstock to die cut the Memory Box poinsettias and I added rhinestones for a touch a sparkle.

This card is for:
Alphabet Challenge - W IS FOR WINTER
Winter Wonderland - ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU
Sparkles Forum Christmas - #133 Use some Gold
