From the Heart Sketch challenge no. 40


Hello everyone!! Today I got in the craft-room and played with a new image
 I bought at From the Heart Stamps called
 Holly Jolly Christmas and can be purchased here
Holly Jolly Christmas 

How cute huh???


I followed this week sketch at From the Heart
Sketch040.jpg 

Here is what I have done with the cute image and this great sketch:

Colored with Prisma Color pencils and blended with OMS. Cut the image out with Spellbinders Grand Scalloped Oval die. I added stickles to the Christmas Balls and to the star, then added some Glossy Accents to the Birds eyes to make them pop! the DPs are from my Christmas Stash.

The inside, I used 2 different spellbinder dies, and the sentiment is a new 
wooden stamp added to my collection. I stamped it in Red ink from Stampin Up and then colored some green n yellow with my prisma color pencils. The DP is from the same stack as the DPs on the front of the card! Great stack from Recollections.

Thanks for stopping by!

 Phew what a drive!
I got to meet a wonderful lady Denise from (her BLOG) that I had the pleasure to work with on the Digi Darla Design Team for a year, she lives in El Paso, so with hubby's job in her town I took the opportunity to meet up with her and have dinner and a wonderful evening!
Here is a photo that we took at her house! I hope that I get the chance to get back to El Paso, TX to visit with her again some day!

So on to this weeks Challenge at Created With Love Challenge
