Hi! This card was made for today's Sketch Challenge....
Okay...I swear, I only need to make a few more Christmas cards! Please bear with me...I have so much left to do, and so little time to do it in! (Doesn't EVERYONE? LOL!)
I wanted to have the circles make a little scene, but it just didn't happen, so I placed the Stephen the Snowman UNDER the trees, looking up! (I reverse stamped him, and he's colored with SU! markers in Old Olive, Bravo Burg. and Real Red. The birds were colored in Bravo Burg, Regal Rose and Real Red!(I drew in the legs on Craig the Cardinal with a Basic Black marker.)
The tree is from Loads of Love, and frankly, the only one that FIT in the 1 3/8" punch! I used a dauber to color in the tree, the trunk was done with a SU! marker. The snow is Signo pen!
Well...I got caught by my neighbor while I was sneaking around my garden in my jammies this morning, looking for another bush with "twiggie" looking branches! He laughed so hard when I told him what I was doing...Geesh! Why don't some people understand the NEED to create? LOL!

Beautiful! Love the little cardinals! You are going to have to keep a stash of twigs in your house! Although I am sure your neighbor gets a kick out of seeing you in your creative moods!
