Today, of course, is time for a new challenge at Freshly Made Sketches. And it's a nail biter because I am the hostess! I created a square sketch (of course) but feel free to use another shape if squares give you the heebie jeebies!
I used some oldie-but-goodie colors from Stampin' Up! on this card. I think some of these are the very first "in colors" that they came out with many moons ago - and they are still my faves. I especially love using them on Christmas cards.
As I mentioned there are a bunch of Christmas challenges out there but I didn't want to go crazy! So I'm adding this to Cupcake Inspirations and Fab Friday. They are both Christmas-paloozas!
Thanks for stopping by. And go check out the amazing creations from our super-creative design team. They will inspire you to play along with us at Freshly Made Sketches, I'm sure!

He is a right jolly old elf isn't he!! This is such a fun card Jen. I can see why you like the colors, they're perfect for this one!
Oh, my gosh! I had forgotten about these colors. They look fabulous here. And I love the subtle harlequin pattern in the background. So glad you had another Christmas card in you, because this one is so fun!
Love this little guy, and I WISH they would bring back Cranberry Crisp...what a great color that was! He's a jolly old soul for sure!

I'm sorry I'm so late visiting to tell you how fabulous this card is! That Santa always cracks me up, and it was your use of this image that got me buying that set last year! Anyway, love this card and I loved your sketch.
