Hello stampers,
     Yesterday was a very busy day for me between vet visits with my cats & then taking in 2 more kittens since my last ones got adopted, so I'm a bit behind & finally have a little time to sit & blog about my card for today's challenge. Today's challenge is a sketch from Stace, it took me some time to figure out what I could do with it & this is what I came up with.
     I started with a Tranquil Tide Cardstock base followed by a layer of Whisper White where I stamped the sentiment from the Merry Christmas To All Stamp Set & the little holly (to match the DSP)paper from the Peaceful Poinsettia Stamp Set with Tranquil Tide Ink then colored the holly using Cherry Cobbler & Tranquil Tide Stampin' Write Markers. For the Cherry Cobbler, strip I stamped the border stamp from the Peaceful Poinsettia Stamp Set with Tranquil Tide Ink. Next, I used the 1 3/4" Circle Punch to cut out a circle with Sahara Sand Cardstock & the retired Banner Punch to cut out the small banner of Tranquil Tide Cardstock. On the circle I added another piece to the sentiment from the Merry Christmas To All Stamp Set using Tranquil Tide Ink. Before assembling, I added a strip of Joyous Noel DSP to the bottom of my Whisper White Cardstock. That's it for me an easy peasy card!

 Today's sketch, give it a try & share with us on our Facebook page!
