CHRISTMAS IN JULY 2

Wow, here it is Friday night and I have a new card to post. I am really on the ball this week. What can I say, it is almost 100 degrees outside and my body can not stand to much of those temperatures. So it is easier to get everything done and stay inside the rest of the time. I worked this morning and got off about 1 pm, ran some errands, stopped at Hobby Lobby for some paper that is 50% off, tried to pick up a sandwich at Quizno's (but it was closed along with 2 other restaurants in the same strip mall). I came home made some lunch instead and got to work. Here is the results.

The sketch is from Sunday Sketch and Stamp:

I made a few additions to the sketch, but I think that is allowed.

Now, I will tell you a little about this card. It was colored with my copics, C1, E31, E33, E53, E50, E09, G 17, G09, ROO, R20, W3, W5. Spica glitter pens, pink, baby blue, mint and garnet. The card stock is from Hobby Lobby, the Paper Studio, I also used handmade papers from the Paper Studio. I love the look of those papers. (See, I bet you did not think I could use any thing except Bazzill). The sentiment is a $1 stamp from Michaels, there were 4 different sayings I used 2 together. The bling is from my stash. I used my Cuttlebug to emboss my first layer with the snowflake folder. I used crystal stickles on the snowflakes. The large snowflake was cut with a Martha Stewart punch, which was bought at michaels in the clearance bin for $3.98. The small snowflake is from my stash. I cut the sentiment and its mat with my Spellbinders Nestibliliies. Also, the mat under the image was cut with the scalloped square Nestibilities.  I love these items. And after watching the interviews that Gina K did at the CHA with employees of Spellbinders, Basic Grey, Cuttlebug, I can't wait for the new items to hit the stores. I have got to really start saving some money, so that I will be able to buy some new supplies. She also interview Diana Crick it was great. You should go and check it out. I love the way that this card turned out and hope that you like it
