Neutrals

Hi - just a quick post tonight. I had a go at making a Christmas card this afternoon using neutral colours only. This was inspired by the the challenge over at jinglebellesrock.
My stamp is made by Inkadinkado and a used a beige versafine ink to stamp it. The sentiment is a digi from McMahon Five Designs. The backing paper is a Forever Friends one and all edges I have distressed with beige inks. It is hard to see from my photography but I have used Atyou glitter pens on the snowy areas. I finished off with some neutral flowers and some gold gems.
I am entering this in the following challenges -
jinglebellesrock/neutral-noel
christmasstampin-challenge-7-sparkle-shine - my Gems x
trimmiescraftchallenge-march-christmas
christmasatsweetstampin/no-red-no-green
docerelashop-34-pastel
