Match the Sketch
My upline, the lovely Stephanie Pike, posted a list of challenge blogs for our team to use when we lacked inspiration. I decided to play along with the sketch challenge at Match the Sketch this week. I also liked the idea of the Paper Players challenge to use green (any green) and white. Even though I didn’t get my card posted in time for the Match the Sketch challenge, it still meets the criteria for both challenges.
I knew that the Every Occasion stamp set would work perfectly for this sketch and settled on the tree image. I stamped it nine times onto Whisper White card using Garden Green ink. 
I punched out the images using the 1″ circle punch. I attached the images to Garden Green circles cut using the smallest Layering Circle Framelit Die and attached them to Whisper White card. 
I wrapped a length of Garden Green card with the Whisper White 5/8″ Organza Ribbon and attached it below the trees. I stamped the greeting from the Star of Light stamp set below the ribbon using Garden Green ink. I tied a bow in another length of Whisper White Organza Ribbon and attached it to the card front using a Glue Dot.
The whole panel is attached to scored and folded Garden Green card.
Inside the card I stamped another of the greetings from the Star of Light stamp set, once more using Garden Green ink.
Well, what do you think? I know its early but you can never have enough Christmas cards.
Bye for now,

Oh… I love that you went with a Christmas card theme. The repeated trees on the white background are fabulous. So glad you shared this wonderful card with us at the Paper Players this week

P.S. I think your upline is right – I often participate in challenges when I am feeling a little lost inspirationally, it’s amazing how they can take me out of my comfort zone and get my juices flowing

Thank you so much for your lovely comment. I couldn’t go past Christmas with the combined challenge of the colours and the sketch. I totally agree challenges are a great way to kick off your creativity when you might be feeling a little lost for inspiration.
