To Your Wishes!

I made 12 Christmas cards last month, so time to start making this month's cards.   This card was made for the current 52 Christmas Card Throwdown which is to 'Pick a Previous Sketch' and I used the sketch from April 2013.  I'm also entering this month's Christmas Cards All Year Round challenge which is 'Red and White'.   The paper and card are from my snippets drawer, so I'm off to the playground at Pixie's Crafty Workshop,

Card blank: 6" x 6" white silk 
Stamp: Penny Black 'To Your Wishes!'
Punch: Woodware Crafty Edger and 'Ribbon Border' cassette
Ink: Momento Tuxedo Black
Colouring: Promarkers
Other: Wink of Stella, Stampendous 'Cotton Ball White' fun flock, red nailheads
Snippets: Red mirri card, white silk card and paper

I used the Ribbon Border cassette on the long edge of a piece of red mirri card and trimmed it to fit the left side of the card blank.  A snippet of red patterned paper was layered onto the mirri and this was then attached to the card.   The image was stamped onto white card and coloured with Promarkers.  This was trimmed, layered onto red mirri card and attached to the card following the sketch.  Three red nailheads were attached under the image.   To finish, I added a Wink of Stella to the champagne and belt and fun flock to the hat.
