Paper Play Sketches #32, that is. Even though this sketch intimidated me at first, once I got going, I really got into it. Here's the sketch:
And here's what I did with it:
To create this card, I finally decided to cut into my 6x6 Perfectly Plaid Winter paper pad from Lawn Fawn (GASP!) I've been hoarding that and the Perfectly Plaid Christmas pad since I bought them last fall. I guess they won't do me any good at all if I don't use them, right?? So I chose which patterns I wanted to use, and (luckily) found a matching gray card stock in my stash. That cute polar bear is from Bugaboo; find him here. The sentiment is stamped in Memento London Fog ink.
Challenges:
12 Months of Christmas Link Up #25: ATG, or optional "Out with the Old, In with the New" theme (new, used my recently acquired MISTI to stamp the sentiment; old just about everything else)
ABC Christmas: "A" for ATG, or "B" for something beginning with "b" (blue, bear)
Christmas Card Challenges #5: ATG or optional "Snow" theme
CHNC #318: ATG or optional "No Sentiment" theme
Crimbo Crackers #125: Something Cute
January Rudolph Days: ATG Christmas
Cutie Pie #107: Winter Warmers
Simon Says Wednesday: ATG
HIMCR #286: Any Holiday
Crafty Sentiments: Use Dies (Spellbinders used to cut out sentiment layers)
Digi Choosday #4: ATG
Come and Get It: 3 or more layers
Love to Craft #6: ATG
Love to Scrap #93: ATG
