Welcome back stamping friends!!
I'm a little late with my ABC Christmas Challenge card. Like I mentioned yesterday, I spent all weekend working on Sales Taxes so I got behind on DT work. But I'l almost caught up now.
The challenge over at the ABC Christmas Challenge Blog is: V is for...
Things that start with "V" (with two sketch options).
Please try to add at least 2 things that start with "V". Vertical, Vintage, Vellum, Violet, "Very" Merry Christmas!! You get the point.
We are sponsored this week by:
Pink Cat Studio was so kind as to provide the DT with images to use. Unfortunately, I was late doing my card and found out that I am out of my watercolor paper! Uggg!! So I had to use an image I had already stamped/embossed in my stash! **Note to self - buy more watercolor paper soon!!**
I am hoping to have another card to share next wednesday using the 2nd sketch and the Pink Cat Studio image.
So here is my card this week using sketch #1...
I have used Vellum, Violet, and Very Cute!!
The image is Best Friends Forever from Wags 'n Whiskers Rubber stamps.
The Polka dot DP is from Cosmo Cricket Mitten Weather. The Vellum was embossed with a Tim Holtz texture folder so it's nice and 3-D (which I am noticing appears to be blurry in the photo, but it's the dimension you can see.
The sentiment is Signature Christmas from PTI. I also used some Light blue Silk Ribbon and Kaisercraft pearls.
The image was embossed in black and watercolored with Twinkling H2Os...
So now it's your turn!! It's a great time to come play along with our challenges! There are only 65 days before Christmas!!!
I'm also entering this into the Paper Sundaes Challenge: For someone Little.
Thanks for stopping by! Happy Stamping!

so sweet and love the coloring of your image. of course purples are my favorite! love the layout and the detail. you always talk about watercolor paper. do you need to color with special pens or pencils for that? I should try it out if not, cause your coloring is always fabulous! well hope you can relax now and have a wonderful weekend!
