Sugar Bowl *22*

Good Morning!! This week I have made the sketch over at the Sugar Bowl!! I really hope you enjoy it! I have flipped the sketch for my card!! LOL I know but I usually make a card first and take the sketch from there but I needed to get one done quick!
Anyways here is my card:My card is pretty plain this week but I just adore this image and the paper that I didn't want to take it over with anything else! This image reminds me more of Christmas than fall so I have created a Christmas card with it! I used some crackle glaze on the kraft paper for a more vintagey look.
Be sure to go and visit the rest of the DT cards as they are so pretty!! I know I say this every week but I am always blown away by the beautiful cards!! Oh and the prize is Leanne's new Christmas Annie stamps!! Whohoo ~ did you see them?? They are adorable!

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a great day!! I am really enjoying this warm wave we are having!! It has been beautiful the past 3 days and I hope it lasts for at least a little while! It is much nicer to rake in the high 60's than the cold blowy low 50's!! lol


Paper: Webster's Pages
Inks: Distress inks, twinkling h2o's
Accessories: stickles, lace ~ fabric barn, pearls ~ prima

This is just beautiul Kathy! I agree this image is perfect for christmas {more so than fall I think}. I can't believe it's time for another Sugar Bowl sketch already, didn't even get chance to use Tiets' sketch! Where does the time go??!!
Surely you must have raked up those leaves by now!! Lol!
Hugs, Vicky ~x~

This is a real beauty of card Kathy and your sketch design is gorgeous! Love those papers, I agree it would have been a shame to cover them up. Your colouring is beautiful, a lovely gentle harmony with the pretty paper and the glazed sentiment and lace really give it the vintage look. Good you've had a warmer day but I don't envy you all that raking!! Hugs, Chris xx
