Fun sketch today! My rectangle panel is a little longer to fit the image, but everything else is in order.
I stamped the barn image and instead of coloring in the ground, I let it be snow and I added more snow on the roof and trees w/ a white gel pen. The out of the box Nestie technique was a little tricky because I had so many points out of the box. The red band was die cut and the greeting was stamped w/ white ink. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25.
Thanks so much for looking! I hope to have it on my blog after dinner, but my laptop is in the shop so it may be later. The Write Stuff

Beautiful Christmas card, Julie. Your coloring of the scene is breath-taking. Lovely die cut scallop too. And your out-of-the-box is SO well done and intricate.
