Hello, everyone! We have a special sketch for you this week at
Tuesday Morning Sketches! It's our 11th birthday! Woot Woot! We're having a big celebration and there are some fabulous prizes! I hope you will be inspired to join our challenge! I went with a winter holiday card!
I used an adorable topper that I won a couple months ago from
Polkadoodles (thank you!) called
Sleightime Friends Shopping - Winnie White Christmas. I die-cut a scalloped frame (Gina Marie Designs) from red glitter cardstock (Darice) to frame the topper. I stamped a sentiment (Lawn Fawn) in red and die-cut a fancy oval (Nellie's). I embossed a snowflake background (Die'sire Embossalicious Let it Snow) and then arranged some scraps of patterned paper (Studio Calico Magical) according to the sketch. I adhered the framed topper, popped up on craft foam, and then finished the card by adhering a few red snowflake sequins.
Here's our
Sketch 562, designed by Melissa. It was way back on July 7, 2009, when Melissa published the first sketch at
Tuesday Morning Sketches, so we thought bringing it back would be a fun way to celebrate our 11th birthday! As always, I'm looking forward to seeing what you make!
