Freshly Made Sketchles 403

Another week has come and gone 😳 and it's time for a new challenge at Freshly Made Sketches.  This week our sketch is designed by Narelle.  Her sketches always look so simple.  Yet she manages to take those sketches and layer them up while still keeping them clean and simple.  She's so gifted!  For my card I chose the traditional CAS route!

I went with a Christmas theme because I'm always worried that I don't have enough Christmas cards in my stash for the new season!  I'd rather have too many than not enough come December.  For my card I heat embossed the first layer of angled stripes in gold then added a strip of dark red cardstock and another slim white layer with a sentiment.  In between are a couple of pine boughs and a sprig of berries.  Super simple and relatively easy to put together! 

At Jingle Belles they are looking for a "peace" theme so my little sentiment fits the bill there.

Thanks for stopping by!  My fellow Freshly Made Sketches design team members have made some great cards with this sketch so check them out!  I hope we'll see you in the gallery!
