A Quick Christmas Card {CTD265 &FMS109}


Hey everyone! Thanks for stopping in today.  I've got a super-cute Christmas card to share that took less than 20 minutes to put together.  Actually, it took a bit longer because I had to let the Crystal Effects dry all day while I was at work, but other than that - less than 20 minutes. :)

I used this week's Color Throwdown and the sketch is from Freshly Made Sketches:




I used a roll of ribbon to draw my Christmas light strings and then used the little light from the TAWS set, Chill Out to finish it off.  I colored the lights in with Copics and used Crystal Effects to give them a shiny, glass-like look.  SO easy!   The sentiment is from Christmas Magic, also from TAWS.  :)

Okie dokie - that's it from me!  Have a fantastic Thursday and I'll be back in the morning with a new BE Inspired Challenge - I'll see you then!
