I'm Dreaming of a Pink Christmas!

Well, not really! But it's colour challenge week at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown and this week it's a very modern combination for Christmas of Pink, Black/brown and white/cream. Do click on the link and look at the fantastic cards the rest of the DT have made to inspire you! This one is mine:
I used a pearlised pink card blank and stamped the small ornament stamp from an old SU set called Hung Up On The Holidays in pink onto Naturals White card stock.  You can't see it very well but the one in the centre is also popped up with dimensionals.  Each bauble has a small pink gem in the centre.  I stamped the strings in black and matted the images onto black card.  The sentiment is my current fav -Sassy Salutations. The whole effect is shimmery and pale pink, not your usual for a Christmas card and I have to tell you that it took me a long time to get my head around it.  Funnily enough I then went a bit Pink Christmas mad and made the card I posted last week for another challenge!
