Sketch Saturday #234


It's Saturday which means another fab sketch from
Sponsored by the wonderful

I have coloured up my Sugar Nellie "Poinsettia Girl" with Copics and used her on an old favourite K&Co DP. My sentiment is an oversized brad from my stash. I didn't want to obscure the pretty baubles but I did want to add a Marianne Poinsettia die so I have obscured some of my sketch elements. Hopefully it is still visible but just in case...It looks like this!  
I made banner ends for my horizontals and I did weave them beneath the vertical but you just can't see that anymore.  Whoops! 
I am entering my card into the challenge at Stamping Sensations which is for a "Traditional Christmas Card" and Winter Wonderland who want to see "baubles".  You can't get much more traditional than red, green and gold with baubles and poinsettias!

Hi sweetie this is just gorgeous, would you believe I've not seen this stamp before but I really like it it lush & I'm loving the colours.

Eeee missy where have you been, not knowing who the Cullens are...lol. I love Vampire movies but they have to have a good story to them & I hate bad acting & corny films so I dont watch them, hubster will, if it has a vampire or zombie he will watch it lol.

Lotsa hugs Vicky xxx

Ref the peacocks , I live near to a stately home, and they come over to my garden from there . I think they are beautiful but the other villagers hate them, they say they make too much noise. Hugs Elaine
