I know, I know. Another Christmas card, but I have had this image colored for over three weeks now and I have been waiting for the opportunity to use it on a card. When I saw today's Sketch Challenge, I instantly knew what I wanted to do!!
So, this is for today's Sketch Challenge 220.
My image is from High Hopes Stamps colored with Prismacolor pencils and odorless mineral spirits. I duabered the sky with Bashful Blue. For my BG panels, I used two different Cuttlebug folders. The swirl folder I left white, and the snowflake folder I used the negative effect with Bashful Blue. The snowflakes are a Cuttlebug die with a rhinestone in the middle.
Since it is a Christmas card, I am making it my Christmas Card Challenge for April and for once, I will be actually be ahead of the game!!! LOL
Of course, I will be making 10 of these.

Love all the embossing and the colouring is beautiful! Think of it as a spring card, it's Santa's turn to pull the sleigh after the reindeer's winter work!!

You're on April!! Sigh, I had such a struggle even getting through my March cards. Love this, it made me smile. That deer looks so comfortable on the sleigh.
