Trying a challenge from a new bog for me. Freshly Made Sketches Found it one day when blog surfing. That have great sketches to try. Here is this week's:
Looks simple huh? Well it took me awhile. I couldn't decide what to put in those squares. Finally spotted a piece of DP that I have had for several Christmas seasons and hadn't used it yet. I guess I was saving it because it is so pretty. So that decided, I emphasized the holly with a stamp from Inkadinkadoo stamped with Tim Holtz distress ink (peeled paint). I colored the berries with red star gel pen. I chose the sentiment from TAC because it was the only one I had that fit on the square. Sometimes that works out as seems to go well with the rest of the card. Red and gold ribbons complete the look.Lots of glitter here.
