A very good day to you! Thanks for dropping on by.
I have created a layout for the January KAISERCRAFT SKETCH CHALLENGE which is to use this fabulous sketch..
I love the idea of layers so I have used lots on my layout.. And as I have a lot of the Christmas ranges I thought I would create a chrissmassy layout using a photo of my puppy at her first christmas!!!
Some closer views.
fussy cutting and kindy glitz on the flowers..
Gracies First Christmas..
This is all Kaisercraft papers and collectables with some edging done with Martha Stewart punches..and a Kaisercraft die too.. I loved creating this one..
and while I had the Christmas papers out I thought I would create a card using the sketch from FEELING SKETCHY #137 which looks like..
and my card...
Christmas Blessings.
Some embossing, and dies used to create the flower and leaves.. and always love a little bow too!
Thanks so much for taking a look and I hope your day is going well.. I do appreciate the comments you leave me too.. I hope you are keeping cool, we have been having such hot dry days here and then I see across the oceans some of our American friends are having snow storms!! A wild amazing world we live in!! Take care!
Both your layout and card look wonderful. I love all the layering!
