Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge 145

Good morning - It's time for another Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge! Here is the deal: make a card with this layout and use the InLinkz button down at the very end of this post to enter your card. The links will close on Friday at 10 PM (Mountain Time), and I'll randomly select one card to feature on my blog on Saturday. So, as long as your card is linked by 10 PM Friday, your card will be in the drawing. Be sure to link directly to the blog post or gallery image which features your card. You may post a picture of the sketch on your blog, but please save the image to your computer first. Use the keyword SSSC145 if you plan to post your card in an online gallery.

I'm definitely in that Christmas spirit this week, so I made a Christmas card using Wings of Joy, which I haven't inked up at all since last year!  That's just criminal.  



I stamped the tree in Memento Tuxedo Black and then colored it with Copic markers.  I ran the Choice Snow White circle through the Big Shot with the Lots of Dots Impression Plate to make it look like snow behind the popped up tree.  For the snowflake, I stamped the image in Memento Angel Pink and then used a Winter Wonderland Snowflakes die to cut it out.  A little button and some Ladybug Doodle Twine to finish it. 

The Sweet Sunday Stampers have amazing sketch samples to show you today, so stop on by to see:
Thanks so much for stopping by!
