Raindrop Echo Designs: How'd it get so "Christmassy?"

How'd it get so "Christmassy?"

I don't know, but it does look Christmassy, doesn't it? I guess it's just the colors...I used too much burgundy and gold and not enough cream! Well, I finally gave in and bought some Cute Daisy May images. I couldn't resist this one! Plus, they're priced very reasonably and they don't take up any space...so yeah...there was no excuse not to get them :D

This card is for a few challenges:

IC Sketches - for ICSketches #21
If the Shoe Fits - for Friday Color Challenge Burgundy, Gold and Cream
High Hopes - for Challenge #36 Use Up Your Scraps - Not new papers were harmed in the making of this card! Even printed out the image on a scrap :D
Charisma Cardz - for Challenge #24 Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend - Diamonds and gold, ah, I spoiled myself.

Card Details
Paper: K & Company (I think), DCWV
Stamp: Cute Daisy May
Embellishments: diamonds (lol), Stickles
Techniques/Tools: BIC Mark-It, Copics
