Just Magnolia...

...and hAnglar & sTanglar challenge week 122.

What have the folk at Just Magnolia asked for..."Anything goes" - with the option of adding circles.
I didn't want to go too mad with the matting & layering or embellishments on this one so created a 'topper' effect by cutting my image out with a tag shaped thin die. Just a small spray of silver & white holly leaves, some white fir fronds, a couple of silver roses and a pink bloom were all that I've used as an embellishment.
The photos don't really show off the background CS which is purple miri card with foil embossed silver baubles - that's where the circles come in LOL

As you can see, not very traditional colours esspecially as Tilda is dressed in pink. Something quite simple but a little bit different.....................

Sometimes stepping out away from the traditional Christmas colors is just whats needed. Pink is a new hot color for Christmas. Such a darling card!
