Whoopsi Daisy - Use up Your Stash


This weeks challenge over at Whoopsi Daisy is Use up Your Stash or Anything Goes with a Whoopsi Daisy Image.  




This Week i have used a Pre coloured  New scene Whoopsi Daisy image which you can find Here .
The paper is from stash that i used last Christmas and was in my bits box and all the die cuts were ready cut that i had not used from previous cards.
The frame is a Mariane die and so are the swirls.  I think the poinsettias are Marianne too.

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges.
ABC Christmas Challenge               Y is for your favourite punch / die
Christmas at Sweet Stamping           Anything goes               



Thank you for passing by and looking and for any comments left.
