Sketch and Belli Challenges

I think you are gonna get real sick of seeing this image! I brought very few images, colors, dp with me on vacation!

For the SC today, I used the same Anna Griffin dp, which I just LOVE! The other colors are artichoke and celery. I watercolored the blossom in rose romance and old olive, and added piercing, as I have only one ribbon with me, silver gray. The lighting here is not great, so I thought I'd better tell you what I had done.

I love this sketch, based on a card by Dawn (flowergal36), whose things I adore!!

DH and I are off to Manchester, if the Paper Tree is open on this Holiday. Its just before ten, so I'll give them a call first. Is he not the BEST, to take me places where I spend our $??? I'll be checking in later on SCS and on your blogs. Make it a great day!! HUGS!

Creative Belli Challenge #78

Our sponsor for this week's challenge is Creative Cuts & More. They sent us some fabulous die cuts! You really need to check out their website. I used their Tag Card with Tag-side Opening #P082. The wonderful color was perfect for a vintage Christmas card.

The challenge is to make a card with Christmas embellishment, using what you already have in your stash. I have had these jingle bells for ages, and thought they dressed up the ribbon wonderfully! Of course, I had to have some RED, so the thin border behind the holly leaf dp and the ribbon called out to me. I hope you like my tag card, and that you will join us in the challenge. Upload your card to our blog, which is on the left of my post, and please look at the cards made by the girls of the design team. Just click on their names. If you post to SCS, put CBC78 in your keyword. Join us every other Wednesday for a fun challenge!
