This is definitely a day to be Thankful! Thanksgiving with family, friends, a feast and a Pals Paper Arts Sketch Challenge. And, all of you my faithful Blog Readers!
Seeing all of the circles on the sketch the first time was definitely intimidating. I didn't know where to start. Then I decided to use velluum for the circles and the rest just flowed.
I love the stamp set White Christmas and felt that it would work well with my circles. Stamping images from White Cristmas directly on the dsp from the All Is Calm dsp pack made it seem as though that was all one layer.
The banner from the sketch was extended on my card in order to accommodate my sentiment and the car carrying the tree. A little red bird in the tree complements the red car. And, the green banner hanging between the trees does the same for the tree on the car.
A few snowflakes from Frosted Sequins placed on the velluum circles completes my card.
I struggled trying to get a good picture of my card. Photographing "blue tones" late in the day is difficult for me. Hopefully you can still get a good idea of what my card looks like.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Hugs,

I love this stamp too. I’m going to use this as a example and make one. Love the winter scenes. Good job. Happy Thanksgiving.
I absolutely adore this card. Such a delightful scene that’s perfect for the Christmas season!
love your scene and circles added with the snowflakes! Fun card!
reHappy Thanksgiving! One can almost see their breath in the frosty air of this card! Maybe it is the 12 degrees the thermometer said but it is sunny out and seems more like a balmy 20 degrees! Anyway, back to this cute and fun card! Loving all the details esp the little cardinal. The sentiment seems like a mirror image of the car – how cool! I saw a commercial on TV while watching the parade this morning – it was a Cadillac with a tree tied on the top! I though oh sure if I has such a car would I tie a tree to the top? I don’t think so! Anyway, it was fun to think about that when I saw your card. Stay warm and hope you are feeling better.
I love this card! It’s so fun & whimsical with the xmas tree on top of the car, snowflakes, & the banner, also the pretty little red bird. Awesome card! Hope your back is better & I didn’t cause you any additional pain. Nice to visit tonight!
I’m glad I didn’t’t miss this card because of Thanksgiving, it is fabulous! What a neT idea.
That goofy word was to be neat.
Wow, I almost missed the circles but kept looking and found them. What a cool car and I love the vellum circles! Great job!
LOVE the snowflakes!!! Also like the monochromatic color palette. Cool!
