SKETCH SATURDAY AND 'WASSAIL'

It's sketch #23 over at Sketch Saturday which has been provided this week by Coco. However, it is my first time designing a card using one of their sketches and i thoroughly enjoyed myself!
I have used some papers and elements from the gorgeous Basic Grey 2008 Christmas collection 'Wassail'. They excel themselves every time they bring out a new collection, and i am so hooked on their products i just love to spread them all out on my table and see what evolves, and each time i say "Oh i think this one is my favourite".......until the next arrives!!

The papers are from the 6 x 6 pad and the gorgeous bauble is a chip sticker. I've also used a Ranger paint dabber in Snow Cap to enhance the edges of my circles which were all cut with my Cricut machine and the George cartridge.The swirly stamp is also BG from last years set 'Santa Baby' and the Dec 25 is from the 'North Pole' set, also last year! Ric Rac and jute from my stash.

Thanks for popping in today, i'll see you soon :)
