A Christmas Creation for a few Challenges

Hi all, today I have a simple door hanger for my son - I made a matching set for my daughter with a card (see THIS post) so I'm in the process of making matching card for this too, then I have one more set to make in pink for my youngest daughter, who is a girly girl!

I have used a kraft card base, and stamped a Martha Stewart background in Danube Blue through the middle of the hanger. At every large crossing I've overstamped in white chalk ink the little framed snowflake from WMS Very Vintage Christmas.



The little gingerbread man is also from Waltzingmouse Stamps Oven Fresh Gingerbread Joy stamp set, clear embossed onto some tan bazzill, and I've given him some blue boots and mittens using Promarkers. From the same set, have stamped in Ladybug Red the little candy cane.

The frame is from WMS Holiday Labels 14, stamped in Danube Blue onto some cream linen card.

The sentiment circle is also from the same set stamped in Danube Blue. The ribbon underneath is from John Lewis. Finally added some little blue rhinestones for a bit of glitz!

I am entering this into the following challenges:
