~Dashing Through~

Another Christmas card....it's really getting to be that time.


We're already feeling the cooler weather.



For the brown card base, I rubbed a Tim Holtz Distress ink Tea Dye on white cardstock.

I used my Spellbinders scalloped circles to create the frame for this image and to emboss the blue "sky".







The sketch is borrowed from Card Patterns Sketch 138.



The colors are inspired by PlayDate Cafe PDCC105.
Yummy!!! ;)


Embrace the season...it's coming~ 

Thank you for stopping by. ;)
