Hello Stampers,
It is Sunday Sketch time, Alison Solven from Canada here today.
Each Sunday Patsy Waggoner from the US (my border buddy) and I take turns creating a card using one of our card sketches. Sketches can help get your creative juices flowing. I find that when I'm stuck and seem to have lost my stampin' mojo a sketch can give me the spark I need. They are open to interpretation, no real right or wrong way.
Today's card features products from the August – December 2020 Mini Catalogue. Many of these items are retiring on January 4 and are included in the Giant Year-End Sale.
- Wonder of the Season Specialty Designer Series Paper (153488)
- Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder (153576)
- Most Wonderful Time Project Medley (150705)
- Wonder of the Season Ribbon Combo Pack (153537)
- Jingle Bells (149596)
You can create a card using the sketch exactly as it's presented or switch it up – it's meant to be a starting point for your creativity.

Wendy, I’m enjoying this card so much! You haven’t skipped a beat. You’re very much on your game. Please take time for, you, for your sweet family and enjoy some of what the season offers! Put on some pink blush, light a cheery candle and buy (don’t bake it all) some Christmas goodies to enjoy during Hallmark movies in your sweats!
Sincerely,
Denise Ferguson
