Happy Holidays my Crafty Friends. Welcome to the last Cardz TV Sketch Challenge for the year 2016. WOW, where did the time go? Only a few more days until the big celebration when all the little girls and boys find what Santa left them under the tree. Christmas is pretty anti-climatic around here. We are far from all our family and we don't even put up a tree anymore. It was a lot more fun when there were little children at home. Today's theme is a Christmas card using Sketch #10, #11, or #12. I used Sketch #11. One of my all time favorite paper stacks from Recollections was from a couple years ago, called Sugar Plum. Mine is mostly used up, but I was able to salvage a few scraps to make this card. I thought it was perfect because of the little gingerbread men on it. I had to altar my sketch a little because of the pattern on the paper and moved my triangles to opposite sides from the sketch. I used the Cardz TV stamp set called Gingerbread Christmas. I stamped my gingerbread man using Ranger Archival Ink in Tree Branch. To balance out the front of the card I used some enamel dots in the empty corners. On the inside of the card I used a sentiment from the same stamp set and added a few pieces of peppermint candy in the lower corners to mimic the enamel dots on the front.
I'm so glad you stopped by today and as I sign off for the year I wish you the Happiest of Holidays. See you in 2017 with some new sketch challenges.
