One Card for Two challenges

I've managed something I rarely achieve and that is a card to fit more than one challenge.  Bah Humbug challenge 31 this week is 'angels or fairies' and Polkadoodles week 32 is 'acetate or vellum'.  I had started working on my card for Bah Humbug using one of the Polkadoodles Flutterby fairies and as luck would have it I was aiming to use vellum with sparkle embossing for the wings when I read the Polkadoodles blog so a bit of serendipity here. 
Background paper is one of the smudgy holly design set by Artylicious, the fairy image coloured with pencils is by Polkadoodles and I added some Fairy dust to the toadstool and her glassses.  She is popped onto Nestabilities circles embossed with Cuttlebug Swiss Dots; the holly and greeting are from Polkadoodles Christmas stamp set.
