162!

Time for another sketch!
I was in the mood for lots of glitter and that brought about this holiday card. I adhered the cardstock for the ornaments to scor-tape sheets before running them through the cuttlebug. That makes things a lot easier! My main image panel was 2.5x3.75. The sentiment pane was 2.5x5.
Supplies:
Stamps: Vintage Ornaments
Ink: Black Onyx
Paper: Bermuda Bay, Cameo Coral, White, Silver, Shimmery Pink, Sweet Blush, Aqua Mist
Accessories, etc.: Silver Rhinestones, Silver Cord, Glitter, Vintage Ornaments Die Cut

161!

Happy Friday! It's time for another sketch. Here it is:
And here's my take on it. I picked up the Harvest Berries set a while ago and hadn't actually used it to complete a card yet. I figured now was as good a time as ever. I didn't pick up the matching die for this stamp set, so I did the crazy thing and fussy cut the image out, which yes I realize may not be the truest clean and simple way to go about things.

Card Base: Standard 4-1/4x5-1/2
Main Panel: 3-1/4x4-1/2
