Hello All!
Another Sketch…and I went Christmas!
What can I say…I must confess…I LOVE Christmas!
I am all for the Vintage and Rustic!!
I do like seeing all the glitz and glam too!
Today’s Card reflects the rustic and vintage I like!
Here is the Challenge from Paper Craft Crew #314
Here is my take on the Sketch!
I just want to wrap that wool blanket around me, sit in front of a fire,
drink a hot toddy, and sing Christmas Carols!
Oh wait…I live in NC now!
I’ll turn the A/C down and get myself in the mood…the
good part…I don’t have to shovel snow!
Here is the inside of the Card!
I didn’t line the card…it is light enough to write on…and I
wanted the snowflake to pop!
HERE ARE THE STOCK AND MEASURES FOR YOU CARDMAKERS!
CARDSTOCK:
Crumb Cake- base, 8.5″ x 5.5″ scored @ 4.25″ fold in half on the score
Real Red- ‘blanket’-1.75″ x 2.75″
White Velvet Sheet- the 4 snowflakes (I used scrap pieces to die cut!)
unfortunately…this paper has been discontinued…the demand outweighed the stock and the cost to make more would cost too much for such a short time. This DSP would have gone Dec 31st…perhaps it will show up in the future…the new Catalog comes out the beginning of July…maybe it will be a staple in that Catalog…I hope so, I am bummed I couldn’t order more…hence saving the scraps!! It happens!

Here is the Card again!
There are times, especially around Christmas, where I miss the Northeast.
However, the day after Christmas…nah!
Until the next Post…Blessings and Warmth to you ALL!
Nicely done! I love the plaid and burlap combination. Thank you for joining the Paper Craft Crew this week!
