DS78 ~ A Christmas Sketch ~

Good morning!  We are officially mid week!  And before you know it, the first of December will be here!  That means new releases from Our Daily Bread Designs.  ***And they are DARLING!***  Can't wait for you to see the new items Kelley and company have in store... 
 
So in the meantime, I have a wonderful classic ODBD set, Christmas Blessings to share along with a Deconstructed Sketch challenge...

Here's the card...




and the Deconstructed Sketch...


I actually pulled out my old Coluzzle for this project. I also used a Scor-Pal to score the lines on the DP. It gives it a bead board feel... I couldn't resist the gingham even though it isn't really traditional...  But why not mix it up a bit, right?
 
  As always I hope you have a wonderful day and until next time... Blessings...

What a gorgeous card, Lori. I just love all the green, and that ribbon is SO perfect on this card. I just realized yesterday that I am completely out of that wide gimgham ribbon. I know, ME saying I need more ribbon. That's like Starbucks saying they need more coffee. Impossible! LOL
Thanks for sharing this in our challenge, Lori. You are such a blessing!

Lori, the gingham pulls everything together and it makes a down home rock solid statement. The little snowflake on the ribbon matching the DSP is so sweet. It is such a beautiful card. Thank you for linking up with us at WAW. Come back as soon as you can.
