Twofer Card Challenge

Hi Everyone, I'm just squeaking in under the wire for the Twofer Challenge
My card is made using one of the Paper Artsy flowers (Eclectica³ {Kay Carley} 02) and by flipping then upside down I made my Christmas baubles.
 
 
 
Flowers- I stamped the images and used pencils to colour.
 

Baubles- stamped the image in Delicata Gold ink for a little shimmer; coloured the little petals and stems with pencils; and then blended ink through a stencil for the bauble.

I'm entering this for the following Challenges
NBUS (my new Hero Arts Die)
CAS MIX up (white acrylic paint splatters, blending and stamping)
Watercooler Wednesday (all about occasions)
Merry Little Christmas (anything goes Christmas)
