Rainbow Christmas

I have been struggling with a card I really want to make and needed a bit of easy peasy play. So I pulled out my distress Ink Pads and this is the result ...


I used a stamp which I found at a local market.  I just inked, spritzed and stamped - how easy is that! Oh and then I spritzed the paper with Heidi Swapp white colour shine and a few tiny specks of black. The sentiment is a newbie from WPLUS9.
I made this with the Merry Monday Christmas challenge in mind, because their theme is non-traditional colours.
I'll also enter this in the Simon Monday Anything Goes Challenge.


ETA: I'm entering this card in Moxie Fab Worlds Tree-mendous Trees challenge.
