http://adayfordaisies.blogspot.com.au/
If you don't have any A Day for Daisies stamps Tammy has given a free image for this challenge, she also has a few free images in her shop.   I have used an image I bought a while back and made an ATC 2.5 inches x 3.5 inches.


I have printed A Day for Daisies digi stamp Christmas Pixy one onto Daydream Designs Christmas Trees paper from Rudy Doody paper set.  Added sentiment from Celebrating Christ Sentiments set.
Coloured the image with markers.  Layered all onto red ATC card.

I would also like to enter this ATC into the following challenges:
