Christmas Cheer - SSS177 - DT Call!

Hi all! And a Very Happy Sweet Stop Sketch Saturday to you! I have some Exciting News to share with Everyone today!! 8-) 
We are having an OPEN DESIGN TEAM CALL! 8-)

Thank you!We will begin contacting potential new team members the week of October 1st.
And I'm also here to share the latest  Sweet Stop Sketch Challenge, Yay!  Our Awesome sketch is another Fabulous design by our Very own Sweet Sugar Baby,  Cathy McCauley! Thought it would be just Perfect to showcase my Newest SNSS Vintage Ornamets Set! Love this Awesome set, I can tell it's going to come in handy to easily whip out some Super Pretty Christmas cards and pretty quickly too, which is Perfect, as I am a bit behind on where I wanted to be with my Christmas cards so far this year, lol... 8-) So without further delay, here's my take on Miss Cathy's Fabulous sketch..
I stamped one of the Beautiful Vintage Ornaments with Cherry Cobbler onto TE's Choice Buttercream CS and did a little shading with my trusty Copics.  I fussy cut it out and popped it up with a bit of foam tape onto layered SB Classic Ovals and Scallop Ovals die cuts which I shaded with a touch of Antique Linen Distress ink.  My mats and BG layers were created with a combo of Cherry Cobbler CS and Authentiques Wonder 6x6 collection. And to finish it all up, I stamped my SNSS Senitment with Memento Tuxedo Black onto a MFT's First Place Award Ribbon Die-namic banner tag, a sparkly little gem and some fun gold lame ribbon... 8-) 

Here's Miss Cathy's Awesome Sketch... 
I sure hope you can play along with us at The Sweet Stop!Really can't wait to see what you all come up with this week! 8-) And as always, please, make sure to stop by and take a peek at the Wonderful creations the rest of the Super Talented Sugar Babies have put together for your inspiration. Leave them a little Love too, it's Always greatly Appreciated.
