Christmas Challenges (with sketches) #66

Good morning all.

It's time for another challenge over at CCWS and we hope you're playing along with us this year and stocking up on those Christmas cards and projects. It's the turn of the Snow Angels to inspire you this week and Janneke has designed the sketch. We are being sponsored by Carmen.


This is a real use it up card, most of the items (including the card blank) came from my bit box. The backing paper and ribbon are from my stash . The stamp is a very old one from QVC and I've stamped in Versamark and heat embossed with silver detail EP. Embossing folders are from Cuttlebug and Crafts Too.


You will have to pop over to the challenge blog to see the sketch for yourself, remember to check out
 the inspiration of the other DT members whilst you're there. 

Challenges entered:
CHNC Extra - anything goes
Sweet Stampin Christmas - no red or green
Stamps & Fun = Creativity - monochrome
Sunday Stamper - shiny
52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown - ribbons and bows
Sweet Stampin - lots of layers
