Winter Wonderland..

Hi All! And a very Happy Saturday to you!  Hope you all had a fantastic week! It's been a busy but fun one for me.. And since it's Saturday, you know what that means 8-).. It means I'm back with another Super Sweet Stop Sketch Challenge. Yay!  And I am in serious Christmas Mode, lol as it will be upon us before we know it.. So just preparing you that most of the cards you will be seeing over the next few weeks will most likely be Christmas cards.. And today's is  no exception lol 8-)....Anyway, without further delay.... Here is the Sweet Stop Sketch #133  for this week:
And here's my Christmasy take on Miss Korin's Awesome sketch! 8-)


I printed out my Adorable little Heart Song Designs Snowflake Bear onto Flourishes Classic White and colored him up with my trusty Copics. My BG mats and layers were made up with a combination of Kraft & Ivory CS from my stash and some Festive MME dp's. my Snowy panel behind my Sweet little bear was created with he help a bit of emboss resist Flourishes snowflakes.. First I embossed my snowflakes with Snow Cap EP and then very lightly sponged on a bit of Tumbled Glass, and Stormy Skies Distress inks over top and created my snowy scene. My Kraft panel was embossed with the help of my CB and my snowflake EF. The rest is pretty simple.. I fussy cut my Sweet Teddy Bear out, and popped him up with a few dimensional. My Impression Obsession Sentiment, that I can't seem to find in their store just now, was stamped directly to my BG with Memento Tuxedo Black. I added a fun Die-namics die cut snowflake a Sweet red pearl brad from MME and some Yummy baker's Twine from Sweet N Sassy Stamps to finish it all up. 8-)
