This is for today's sketch challenge. I embossed the kraft background with the cuttlebug snowflake folder (uh-h-h-h brown snowflakes?!?), and went from there. I wanted my poinsettia to be the focus in my upper corner so added a snowflake to the other side. Wasn't sure about whether to add the snowflake or not but it needed a little something to "sparkle" it up. I had little snowflakes on the corners of the sleigh panel but decided that was too much. What do you think?

I think this is a beauty. I love how you punched out the corners on your focal point and added the little pearls...nice touch of interest. The poinsettia is the piece that sets the tone. Awesome work. Great job with the sketch.
