Christmas Challenges (with Sketches) # 26

 It's time for our next challenge over at CCWS and we hope you're playing along with us this year and stocking up on those Christmas cards and projects. Sandra has designed the sketch this time and we are being sponsored by Stemplestudio .


Image is a new Stampavie stamp which I choose with a voucher I won recently, coloured with promarkers and glittered up with Glamour Dust. Papers are from Papermania and were all found in my bit box. The silver mesh I've had for years and the sentiment and pearls are from my stash.



You will have to pop over to the challenge blog to see the sketch for yourself, remember to check out the inspiration of the other DT members whilst you're there. 

Challenges entered:
Stampin for the Weekend - lots of layers
Christmas Cards all Year Round - inpsired by Christmas Carol/song (Frosty the Snowman)
CBGM - stripes and dots
CHNC - stripes
Incy Wincy - spots and dots
Shopping our Stash - use 3 or more DP's (C13)
