Merry Christmas

This is Carol's card that she made for the last sketchin' good time for 2009...I decided to go back to traditional Christmas colours...and she did a great job...I love the star at the top of the tree...just the perfect size.

*****

This is Carol's Sketchin' good recipe:

Stamp set: season of joy.

*****

Card stock: white printer paper...real red and whisper white.

*****

Ink: real red and glorious green.

*****

Markers: glitter gel pen....stampin' write real red and glorious green.

*****

Punches: 1/8" hole.

*****

Additional supplies: metal dots...star brad...snail adhesive...paper cutter...and score-it.

Carol said she used her markers to do the sentiment on the card so she could have the two different colours...inside she used white printer paper to make it easier to write a message.






This was a great project Carol...thanks for sharing it with us...thanks everyone for stoppin' by this morning...enjoy the rest of the morning...and I hope you all have a stampin' good day...by the way if your going out shopping you will need your long johns...LOL...brrrrrrrrr...it's cold here.

Christmas Pillow Box

This is what I made for the last sketchin' good time for this year...and it was so much fun to come up with something that was a little different...I love it...we had to use the placement you see here...but the most important part was to use traditional Christmas colours...reds, greens, gold, or silver...and we could add DSP...it could be a card...scrapbook page...or even an altered project...a very fun sketchin' good time to close out the year.

This is the sketchin' good recipe:

Stamp sets: happy winter(retired)...Christmas star ornaments...and Jingle sentiment.

Card stock: whisper white...real red...gable green...dashing DSP(retired)...and assorted scraps.
