Delightful Challenge DT Card - 'Flower Power'

Morning peeps. It's Thursday, so it's time for a new challenge at Delightful Challenges and this week the theme is 'Flower Power'. Now, it would've been so easy not to have done a Christmas card but I'd chosen to work with the 'fairy' image and I really wanted her to be a Christmas Fairy - I hope I've succeeded, you'll have to tell me what you think.......here's my card:




I've shown you all three pics in the hope that you can see what I've done with the card - I die cut an aperture in my card base and then suspended a frame (cut with a nellie snellen multi frame die and my cuttlebug), with the image 'sitting' on it, inside the aperture. I then added die cut flowers (marianne designs die and cuttlebug), layered up with a punched snowflake and dotted with white sakura gel pen (I wanted them to look a bit like the flowers on the backing papers!?!?) All papers are Basic Grey Jovial btw!
I'm also going to enter this card into the following challenges:
I hope to see your creation if you decide to join in with the challenge. Back soon............x
