CAS(E) This Sketch 6

I've been having a little stamping mental block the last few days.  I hate when that happens because I know there's something creative inside my head that wants to emerge on cardstock but I just can't seem to get it out of there!  Today I was meandering around the craft cave when I stumbled on an image that I stamped ages ago and never used.  The newest challenge at CAS(E) This Sketch seemed like a good way to use it.



As you can see I turned the sketch on its side to accommodate this poor hapless fellow.  Why is it that the lights give us so much trouble when it's time to decorate the tree?  The snowflake DSP that I used is from my oh-so precious Holiday Thyme.  I've been on a mission for the last couple of years to use up all the Christmas-themed DSP that I've got, but cutting into this set is the hardest of all!

I've got my eye on a couple of challenges that I'd really like to participate in over the next couple of days so hopefully my forays into the craft cave will be fruitful.  In the meantime, thanks so much for stopping by!

Oh Jen! I can't imagine you having a block when it comes to creating. Love this image and the way you colored it. Great take on the sketch, too.

I just finished decorating my dining room for the holidays. See those lights around your elf...no lights for me today...instead, I was covered in sparkling snow and dragged it all over the house!!!!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING
