Still Getting Dirty

Today is the last day for the Splitcoatstampers Fan Challenge Week.  I decided to do another card, that can complete three more challenges.  Lucky me !!!   I went with a Christmas theme and liked it SO much, that I made 9 more to start on my Christmas cards for this year.  Believe me, it's never too early to start Christmas cards when you have a long list a family and friends you need to send to.

I liked this sketch and wanted to try it.

As you can see, I turned the sketch on a different angle.  The purple paper was discounted paper from the business closing it's door.  If I had to guess, it looks like Bazzil Basics Paper, but the color is discontinued, ever single layer of the purples, all four.  Yep, that means when I went to make 9 more and had to find substitute paper.  It's not the same rich color as this one, but it still works.   The green paper is from Stampin'Up.  Ribbon was Making Memories the Passport series.  Of course, the snowflake brad is Recollections from Michael's.  Almost forgot, the stamp image used, MFT-Pll In a Manger.  I heat embossed with black embossing powder and colored in with watercolor pencils and color pencils.

Thanks for looking and reading !! :o)
