Challenge 9 at Christmas Challenges {with sketches}

Hi there, time for a another challenge at Christmas Challenges {with sketches}, I can't believe its the middle of September already. At this rate it won't be long until Christmas (eeeek). This time our sketch is from my lovely teamie Marion, pop over to the challenge blog and check it out.  

We also have a fabby prize on offer from our generous sponsor Inky Impressions

My card is made using scraps of backing paper from my stash, distressed with a craft knife and  matted on red pearl card. The main image is a stamp by Stampavie, I painted the image with distress ink and added a little glitter to the leaves but it isn't showing in the photo. The sentiment, buttons and ribbon are from my stash.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
