Create With Stampin’ Friends Challenge 843

Christmas Friends Moose Card!

It’s Thursday Challenge time at Create With Stamping Friends . This week is all about using this sketch:

If you’ve never used a sketch to help you create, it’s just a guideline. You don’t need exact measurements, you can flip the sketch vertically or horizontally and you can substitute the shapes. Here’s my card using the sketch:

I used the Christmas Friends Bundle with some pretty designer paper layers from the Season Of Elegance Designer Paper. You can also see that I embossed the Old Olive Cardstock with the Fern 3D Embossing Folder:
