...Christmas!
With Tuesday, it brings my posting day at Try Stampin' on Tuesday
As well as a new sketch for you to try, Sketch #96, which you can see below.
Here is my card I made inspired by the sketch...
I decided to curve the sentiment banner away from the card before attaching with the brads.
Also, a little oops turned into a good thing...
The dye from the Outdoor Denim paper transferred onto the white embossed snowflakes.
There was no way for me to remove the color, so I ended up rubbing the paper over the snowflakes.
It added just the right amount of color and I really love the way the card turned out.
I hope you like it too!

Small sentiment - "believe" from Close to My Heart inked with Outdoor Denim
