Tuesday Morning Sketches - GDT card


 
Hi and Good Morning :)
 
Today sees the start of a fabby new challenge and a brand spanking new sketch over at Tuesday Morning Sketches.
 

I loved this sketch as it gave me a great excuse to use one of my favourite Marianne D dies and not feel guilty at how quick and simple it was :) lol.  This is also one of the few christmas images I have used more than once as thats really quick and simple too.  I think I could make this card over and over again and just change the paper - lol.

I used MME xmas papers, cream and kraft cardstock, and the brads, gems and twine were from stash.  The Merry Christmas die is Cheery Lynn.

I am entering this card in the following competitions:

Simon Says Stamp - Glimmer and Sparkle
Divas By Design - Texture
Mariannes Design Divas - Stamp Something


Thanks so much for checking out my blog today - I will be back again tomorrow and along to visit later,

  16. Just delightful colours & gorgeous paper. The twine with that lovely flower is a super contrast to the sparkling snow. As for the colouring of that hat - speechless doesn't come near it.

    PS - think your idea of how to multiply this design is brilliant & great fun seeing how differently the cards turn out
