Welcome to my last regularly scheduled Sketch-it Saturday creation for the year 2011!!! I know you are probably scratching your head saying to yourself - why another Christmas card??? This girl is off her rocker!!! Well, I am, admittedly a few crayons short, but only in a fun & creative way. I have been challenged to go all year by my crafty friend SK {aka Christmas Countdown Lady}, to do Christmas cards all year. So here it goes this being #1.
ALSO - to up the ANTE {hope I'm spelling this right}, I have joined Terri Sprouls bi-weekly Festive Friday Blog Hop which is a group bringing you all things Christmas starting January 13th. I must have had too much spiked eggnog! Please be on the lookout for the new things going around here in the New Year.
Using this week's sketch #139, I created this cute little card with this stamped and Gold embossed gingerbread man who has a bite taken out of his head. These were some pieces left over from a card class and REMEMBER my one touch rule...this was first out of the baggie of Christmas patterned stuff. So it's in. This cute little guy is an Imaginesce snag-em stamp. He has a bite taken out of his head because when trimming him out, a big chunk of the gold embossing flaked off and I couldn't salvage it. So with my 1/8" hole punch, chomp...chomp...
The two background papers are Bo-Bunny and this is finished off with some festive teal satin ribbon bows and mounted on a cream cardstock card. Short and SWEET!
What is Sketch it Saturdays at Unscripted Sketches? Every Saturday morning a new sketch is posted for the week. Flip the sketch, rotate it… create a card, a scrapbook page, a wall hanging, digital, paper, fabric, paint, anything your imagination comes up with! There is no right or wrong way, as long as you are using the Unscripted sketch as the inspiration for your creation! And everyone is invited to join in the fun...and post your creation on their page for all the world to see!
I hope everyone has a Happy and Healthy fresh start in the NEW YEAR! Please join me tomorrow along with the Design Team of Viva Las Vegastamps! for a New Year's Day Celebration Blog Hop! There are 9 chances to win blog candy, too!!! One day only this time, I promise.
Thanks to everyone for following along here, and also to those who I have gotten to know and work with over the past year. It has gone by pretty fast and I am having a fantastic adventure on the three design teams. I don't know what the New Year will bring, but January is shaping up to be full of surprises...some of my work {along with my fellow AMP design team members} will be on display at the CHA in California, too! I can't wait to share it all with you.
