Seasons Greetings!

Hello everyone, hope you are all having fun. Just made another Christmas card and still not finished yet! This time i thought i would go more traditional (i.e a Christnas tree) but i think it has quite a trendy look to it. I was inspired by Connie's tree at http://inkspiredtreasures.com and she kindly uploaded a template of the tree onto her fabulous website, so thank you Connie.

Today i am entering my card into the following challenges:
