Christmas Sketch

The girls over at Jingle Belles have teamed up with Sketchy Thursdays this week giving two opportunities to win prizes. 

 Designs are based on this lovely sketch by Diana, founder of Sketchy Thursdays.
















Here is my take on the sketch.

The snowflake paper is by Craft Creations Ltd and the stamp is from House in the Forest by Clarity Stamps.

I've stamped it in Paris Dusk memento ink and coloured it with Chipped Sapphire and Milled Lavender Distress Inks.

The white highlights are heat embossed and I've added glitter to the roof, the ground in front of the house and one of the snowflakes on the paper.

The trim is made using a Martha Stewart edge punch and ruffled ribbon.

A die cut snowflake, brad and computer generated sentiment finish it off.
