Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

Second Christmas card for today :) Getting very crafty now I'm feeling a bit better; YAY!!!

I stamped the wooden stampabilities image onto a precut shape with versamark and embossed it with Heat It Up purple. I edged it with Brilliance pearlescent sky blue ink.
I backed the image onto a purple circle and added a peel off glittery circle.
I cut 3 different sized papers to back the card and added glitter along the joins. I cut ribbon to go along the bottom edge diagonally. I added a lilac snowflake brad in the top corner and a snowflake and small blue brad in the bottom corner.
To embellish, I made small baubles from purple circles, glitter and peel offs and glued these on.
 I would like to enter this card into the following challenges: -
