I just loved the look of this sketch and had to give it a try. I only have like 2 christmas cards done so far so wanted to catch up on them, so i turned it into a Christmas card. Love how it turned out...so warm.
I stamped the candle and the 3 Hollyleaves and cut the 3 leaves out. colored them with a water pen, cut the circles and border papers, layered them and sponged the round border. I had the red circle just cut out but was quite a big space between the cut size of circles so I took one of them fancy scissors and trimmed the edges down..
I then cut the one bottom strip and used a edge punch to the bottom side and added the ribbon. Made the little happy holidays and added a couple pine leaves and pearls to finish it off. was a fun one...thanks for the great sketch and ty for visiting...:0)

What a gorgeous Christmas card! I LOVE how you trimmed the red circle down with scissors, the edging is perfect with the candle image. Love the sponging effect. Your card gives a warm and cozy feel, beautiful card!
