While I was cleaning up, I found this Santa from Crafty Secrets and knew immediately I wanted to use it for last week's colour challenge - mellow moss, kraft (or taupe) and white. He SO fits that challenge. Then, the sketch challenge was posted and I knew that it was perfect for this image! Yahoo - I was off to the races.
I got the card front done and it sat on my desk so I could keep looking at it because it just didn't feel done. I stitched around the edges, but it still didn't feel finished.
I saw today's technique challenge on SCS and knew I would be done this card finally.

Gorgeous! Certainly worth sitting and admiring. But I'm glad you finished it so we could enjoy it too.
