KAZAN'S SKETCH 4

I have lots of projects on my 'to do' list, but there is something about Kazan & Laura's sketches that draw me in and make me want to design a card as soon as i see a new sketch!!! Kazan's current sketch, is of course no exception, so...... here is the card i designed using her sketch posted yesterday :)
I know it's a little early for Christmas cards, but i think you can forgive me as i am hosting a six hour! Christmas in July workshop on the 26th, so i will need plenty of sample cards for my lovely ladies that will be attending :)
I have used some of the gorgeous papers from last years Basic Grey 'Figgy Pudding' 6 x 6 pad. I love this collection, the colours and designs are amazing! although i am sure they will produce something equally scrumptious for Christmas 2008! The snowflake is actually made of wood, and i've covered it with some of the paper and then added some Ranger 'Aqua' acrylic paint to the edges.
Other supplies include some Page Pebbles from Making Memories, snowman cut from Queen & Co felt strip with a red nose and black hat added :) The sentiment is from a HOTP acrylic set.
I think this will be a popular choice at my workshop, so i may need to stock up on supplies ;)

I appreciate you popping in today, and i'll see you very soon :)

    Thank you for all your lovely comments :) the circles at the bottom of the card are punched from the BG papers and then shaped around a button! Once i was happy with the look, i then added the page pebbles!
    Hope this helps!!

    Thinking of you.
