I'm caught up with my Christmas CraZy cards! Here is my June card. The image and papers and from my new friend, Tami (blueinks). Thanks for a fun swap, Tami!
I love this sketch. It was easy, but makes a very nice card. I took the image that Tami sent me and sponged on some Antique Linen and I should have left it at that, because I liked it better before I added the Frayed Burlap. I edged the image and the main DP panel with silver gel pen. And went a bit renegade by adding ribbon and a bow instead of a sentiment.

Terrific take on the sketch. I like your creative touch to use the ribbon & bow for the sentiment panel, especially since your tree image has so many words. Fun stamp. The colors and sponging give it a rustic feel. Nice! TFS

LOVE your color combinations...lends to a vintage look, especially with the sepia-looking stamped tree! SUPER card...(could even give it to a single man...oh boy...Christmas cards for a man...super hard for me!)

I like that tree image and the pretty paper (or stamped background) on the other rectangular pan and the. Really like the multiple strands of cord and bow.

How super to use this as a sketch for a Christmas card!! You have inspired me, and if I get the chance to get back into my stamproom, I might just have to come up with a Christmas version also!!
