    Wonderful Christmas/winter card with a lovely vintage touch - I like how you created the festive scenery by using so many different stickers. Great choice of background papers, too - the dark cardboard really makes the images shine. Thanks for joining the Alphabet challenge.

    Hugs, Veronika
