It's X-mas again - Merry Monday #49

It's X-mas for me again...LOL!

I'm keeping a promise I made to myself and that is to make xmas cards thoughout the year! It's so much fun to do xmas cards when it's not x-mas, less pressure that's for sure!!!

This week at Merry Monday the challenge is a sketch, here is my card:

And here is the sketch:



This image came pre-colored and it's from Dustin Pike. I love coloring, especially with Copic Markers but sometimes it's fun to spend the time designing  the card and playing with a sketch rather then coloring the image.

Here is a close up of the image and the sentiment. Unfortunately I don't remember where I got it, I do know it was a freebie, so a shout out to all you artists that do that, share your amazing talents with all of us!!! THANKS A BUNCH!!

** I remembered!!!  I was loking through my computer files and I found the sentiment in my Digi Doodle Shop folder..YAY!! **

For this card I used the a scallop square die and a small scalloped border die as well. I also added ribbon, a bow and some buttons.

I will be entering this card in the following challenges:
Always Playing with Paper, Merry Monday #49, sketch
Christmas Card Challenges, #11 use scallops
No Matter which challenges, #6 Ribbons & Bows
Holly Jolly X-mas Challenge, use 2 dies/punches

Thanks for stopping by,

love & create ...with a smile :)
