I haven't made any of my 5 cards for the February Christmas Card challenge yet, so when I saw that Dara's sketch with those diagonal panels would give me two for the price of one, Christmas was where I went. And between the snow we had yesterday, and the fact that I've spent the morning defrosting the freezer, this pair seemed the perfect choice.
A2 bases, matt silver card. Bazzill Bling embossed with Snowflakes ef, and BG Eskimo Kisses for the panels, edged with silver. I think the sentiment panel may be Wassail...
Stamped the Starving Artistamps Eskimos with black ink, embossed with clear EP, on watercolour paper and coloured with H2Os. Edged in silver. I used a scrap of the sentiment paper to punch 1/4" circles to make faux brads.
Sentiment from See-D's stamped in black.

Sabrina, how smart you were to see this as a chance to get two cards "for the price of one!" Very clever. I love the background DP you used. These are adorable Eskimos! So glad you were able to get a leg up on your February Christmas Card challenge. Great use of the sketch!
