Three challenges, one card again

I managed to combine two challenges today, Papertake Weekly's challenge this week is Cool Yule, so I combined it with this weeks 2Sketches 4 You sketch which I think is perfect for Christmas cards, so simple and quick to do yet oh so effective. I also enjoyed making a rectangular card for a change, all I seem to have made lately is square cards.

Edited: I am going to add this card to the OCC challenge for this week as it fits the Christmas theme


PSX (Santa Rosa) stamp coloured with Prismacolors
Paper is by Anna Griffin
Sentiment stamp from HOTP Xmas set (love these stamps!)

Thanks for looking,
