Sketch Time at 52CCT

By
Today is a new round of challenges at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown and the month's challenges have been chosen by Mynnette. This is also the first week that our new dt members get to strut their stuff so please do pop over and make them feel welcome.
Here's this week's sketch

and here is my card


I made this card using a tutorial I found HERE on fellow dt member Patty's blog. I inked a snowflake embossing folder with Versamark ink before adding my card stock and running it through my Cuttlebug. I then added some Holographic EP and heated (?) it with my heat gun.
My sentiment is from the set Wondrous Gift and I added a couple of foil snowflakes to finish it off.
Well that's it - I'm not here really as I'm away visiting family but I will see you soon - Jacqueline xx

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr
