Hi Everyone
I hope you have all been having a lovely Sunday.
All nice and relaxed here in the House of Hearts .. .. I hope it is a sign of what is to come!! I could handle a few days like this that's for sure.
Today I have finished off the card I started yesterday but unfortunately have not had a play with my snippets. Other things took over .. .. .. but no doubt the snippets will be out another day.
So for now here is the finished entry for Sketch Saturday this week. I did move the sentiment as it looked "off balance" when I put it where the sketch wanted it (the fault of my choice of image .. not the sketch). Hopefully this is allowed but if not then I understand.
This used:
Image: Pixie Dust Studio "Socket the Reindeer" .. .. a lovely freebie I found here
Sentiment: Computer generated using font "2 Peas Barefoot Professor"
Backing Papers: Papermania "Silent Night"
X-Cut Punch: Corner Rounder
Josy Rose: Nail Heads
Sizzix Die: Winter Wonder for the snowflake
ProMarkers and Chalk
Ribbons from my Stash Box
and that is it!!
Here is the sketch if you fancy playing along.
Lovely isn't it?
Enjoy the rest of your Sunday.
Love

Gorgeous Jules, love that paper and cute image!
Ohhh, it itrned out lovely! I wqas wondering what the finished card would look like...I think you should do that more often...leave us a glimpse of a half finished card to spark our imaginations! teehee
Had a great weekend thanks! Tree finished now, decorations all done, out of town parcels sent, baking started (you can never have enough) and Xmas music in the bqackground driving my DH crazy as he thinks nothing Christmasy should happen b4 Dec 15th! hahahaha nothing would be finished if I stqarted then!
Merry Christmas to you!
What a gorgeous image Jules which along with the lovely backing papers makes for a fab card. Carol x
It is a really lovely card, Jules, and I agree with you about the sentiment. My understanding of these sketches is that they are just meant to be diving boards. OTOH, some are more strict than others.
Your little reindeer is so compelling. Is she Olive? She looks like she needs a hug or is it just me? Is her lip quivering because her lights are tangled? They left without her? You know if I owned her, I'd have to write up her whole incredible far-fetched history! So thanks for the fun of imagining it for a couple of minutes today!! Hearts to you! Darnell

A fab card Jules. /super cute reindeer image and lovely colours for the bp. I'm sure they won't mind the image being just a little way along from where the sketch placed it.

Hi Jules. Just having a mad dash round blogland to catch up with you. You sound as though your preparations are going well. I haven't braved the shops this year. All presents are hand made in view of the present climate so at least I haven't had to queue for hours in the shops!!
Your cards are really beautiful. I love this cute little deer.
Have a good week.
Hugs Lisax
This finished up beautifully, Jules!
The reindeer is totally adorable Jules!
Warm hugs
Maarit
