Marleen's Stocking

Hi, everybody!  Today I'm joining a new Progressive Challenge at Imagine That Digistamp!  I received this cute image, along with papers and sentiment, for free when I signed up.  If you'd like to join and get this set for free, you can still sign up this month.  



This set is called Marleen's Stocking. I opted for the precoloured version and fussy-cut so I could pop her up on foam tape.  I adhered her to a snowflake-embossed scrap and layered the digital papers according to the sketch shown below.  I added Star Dust Stickles to her cap and Xmas Red Stickles to the berries on the paper.  I finished the card by stamping a tiny sentiment (Merry and Bright) at the bottom left and adhering a large green snowflake sequin.


Here is the inside of the card, using the sentiment provided and a strip of leftover patterned paper:


My card design was inspired by Sketch Saturday 634, where we can pick any sketch from their 2015 library of sketches.  I chose Sketch 386 by Debra:


I would also like to support the following 8 challenges, for a total of 10:

Hi dear Kitty! Such lovely card with that cutie! The big snowflake is a perfect catch-eyes and the drops for berries add a festive tone to the whole creation! Love how you decorated the inside with the leftover strip, it's a great way to use scraps!
Big hugs!!!

Your card is so festive Kitty, the traditional colours and the cute little image are fantastic! I love the addition of the stickles on the hat, it adds a lovely sparkle, and I like the shine you get from each of the little berries. Fabulous!
Cheers,
Beccy
