WMCS #25 and a few other challenges

Hi all, today I have a card made for the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge, and a few others too. I've made this christmas card for my middle daughter, she's a very girly girl, so it had to be pink!

Here is the sketch:


And here is my card:



I've gold embossed the little gingerbread girl from Oven Fresh Gingerbread Joy, and popped her onto a label from Holiday Labels 14 stamped in Victorian Velvet Distress ink.


Using Versamark Ink, I stamped the background flourish from Very Vintage Labels 10, the little snowflake from Compliments of the Season, and the little star from Oven Fresh..Joy.

Stamped the sentiment circle, gingerbread man and star again from Oven Fresh in Victorian Velvet and cut using Nesties Scalloped Circles sml.
Added a lot of gems, (my daughter loves the bling!) some ribbon and a little bow, distressed around the edges of the card in Victorian Velvet, and the edge of the scalloped circle in Pink Petunia. Finally added a little gingerbread man stamped in Rich Cocoa and added some glossy accents to him.

I'm now feeling very sweet!

I am entering this card into the following challenges:
