Sketch Challenge 197

Determined to participate in a Splitcoast challenge this week, I chose yesterday's Sketch Challenge and here it is in all it's holiday glory! Christmas must be on my mind, and it may be due to the fact that the new SU! holiday ribbon and felt snowflakes in addition to my CHF set, Joyeux Noel are sitting in plain view on my stamp table, just callin' my name!



There's very minimal stamping and maximum embellishments per my usual style, but I'm happy with the mix of textures, layers and bellies. After sponging the edges of my sentiment panel, I decided to do the same with the Cuttlebug'd panel, and now I'm disappointed that I did that--dirty snowflakes aren't as purdy in my book. Oh well, that's the beauty of stamping--I can always make another one! The curvy Chocolate Chip tab is simply a curvy label punch folded in half--gives it a nice vintage look I think.

Thanks for stopping by today, and if you're looking for some sketch inspiration check out this week's sketch challenge over at Splitcoast by clicking right here!
