This is two weeks in a row that my
Freshly Made Sketches card has been a Christmas card. As always around this time of year I start to worry that I don't have enough Christmas cards made. Luckily for me
Jen Brum's sketch with a tree put me in mind of Christmas - but don't worry - you can use whatever shape want. I didn't use a tree but I did use another iconic Christmas image.
The inspiration challenge at
Tis' The Season had a bit of a muted-neutral look to it so that inspired the colors of my card. I almost used green on the sentiment - to echo the green of the pine sprigs - but decided that carrying on with my neutral theme looked better.
I hope you have some time to check out the cards at
Freshly Made Sketches because there's a lot of inspiration to be had there. We'd love to see your interpretation of this sketch in the gallery! I hope you can join us!
Thanks for stopping by!
