Santa for Sunday Card - "A Card for a Child"

Good Afternoon Everyone, I know Im a bit late today but I just thought you might like to see a card I created for this weeks Santa for Sunday Challenge on Facebook "A Card for a Child", Ive used this beautiful image from LOV of a Angel and Ive coloured her with my copic pens and the cut her out with my Nestabilitie Die No.8 and then drew around it to create the mount, the sentiment is yet another of the LOV images and this has also been cut out with a smaller die from the same set, but this has been mounted sideways.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of red pearlescent card and one of two papers from "Deck the Halls" paper set, and this first paper is a white background with snowman, father Christmases, and holly on, then on top I have put a strip across the middle but on the two edges I have used a present border punch and then on top of this I have wrapped a red ribbon thats been attached to the back of the first mount.
I then positioned my mounted image in the middle with the sentiment at the bottom on the right, and to finish of I have used several buttons down the right hand side and one at the bottom on the left.
This card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-
