Am I the only one who keeps certain cards you make? Once in a while there’s a card that I’m so happy with that I want to keep it. There aren’t many but a couple of years ago I made a card similar to this one and I’ve always regretted letting it go so I’m using it as inspiration for this week’s sketch card. I sponged the background (ink colors listed below) and used the circle of light for the circle of the sketch.

I added Snow Drifts Die-namics for the bottom element with the sentiment from Hand Lettered holidays and popped up a Streetlights Die-namics to pull the design together. The holly sprig is from BB Santa’s Elves, stamped, colored, and fussy cut out before adding it to the streetlight. To finish off, I splattered the sky and the streetlight with watered down white craft paint before adding it to the scene.

And there you have it! Remember, you can get all the details by visiting the
MFT Challenge Blog. You have the chance to win a $20 in MFT voucher. One winner is chosen at random each week!

Thanks for stopping by! See you soon!

  3. There IS something about this card that is really awesome. I really like it. In fact I went though my dies and found I have that light die. I've never used it and always wondered what I could do with it. Well, you showed me!! Now can I "try" to make mine half as good as yours??
