Christmas Joy

Hi!  Today I have a card to share for a couple of challenges - The Paper Players (my color of choice is gold), Bitten by the Bug2 (Create a Christmas card) and Fantabulous Cricut challenge (Christmas):
 
   
                                                 
                    
 
 Gold foil sheet is very hard to photograph (at least for me).  It looks so much lighter in person. 
 
 Supplies:
 
Paper: All from Recollections (Michaels)
Accessories: Cricut Explore Air 2, SVG file: Bird on Wreath (Miss Kate Cuttables), Plantin Schoolbook Cartridge (Cricut)
