Penny Black and more December Challenge DT card

Taas syttyvät kynttilät, hyvää adventtiaikaa! Tervetuloa joulukuun  Penny Black and More haasteen pariin.  Nyt on aika näyttää ne joulukortit, jotka on leimattu ja väritetty perinteisillä jouluväreillä.
Hello, first Sunday of the month - it's time for new Penny Black and More December Challenge 
Let us see the stamped Christmas cards with traditional Christmas Colours.
And if you don't know the real Santa comes from Lappland of Finland. In the old days the Santa had grey outfit and the red colour came later from the colourful advertisements. 
I used Penny Black's stamp "holiday hugs 40-081" in my DT sample card. And coloured it with ProMarkers with both greyish and red.
Papers are grey Color Core and Basic Grey.
TH clock is cut from grey package (recycled) with a hint of white paint.
Snowflake is Impression Obsession's die cut and covered with Diamond Dust and a brad,
little snowflakes are "leftovers" from Martha's punch.
Trees from IO too, snow is embossed white UTEE.
"Christmas joy" text is freebie from a Finnish craft magazine.

Love how you combined winter dies with the clock die for this card. A really sweet card with a traditional Christmas feel!
