Merry and Bright
Well, Sankiri got the old brain cells a churning with this sketch! Oh my! So many elements to deal with my simple mind had some time wrapping itself around this sketch. However, once I got to working with it, it fell into place quite nicely. Love a good challenge :)
I decided to use the same papers as my last card as they were still out on my desk with the bonus being the addition of another Christmas card to my stash. Love this fun snowflake die from The Cat's Pajama's and it was perfect for the circle on the sketch.
Yeah, November Verve sketches are all done and now we play the waiting game for the announcement of this month's $100 Verve gift certificate winner. What a wonderful Christmas present that would be!
Thanks for popping in today! Always enjoy the company :)

Hi Marisa, two gorgeous cards since my last visit. Everything you make is so sophisticated. I love your attention to detail.

Very nice! I like how the white elements jump out at you!
So pretty, Marisa. I love that gorgeous snowflake and the cording was just perfect.
Glad you got the sketch to work for you at last, Marisa! It was a toughie. THat's why I went with a monochromatic palette!
I agree with Danni above me, who says the white elements just pop out at you. So cool!
You are more brave than I, and I can see why. It doesn't look like you had any trouble with all of those layers. The snowflake is gorgeous, especially with the gold pearl accents. Beautiful job!
What a lovely card Marisa. That snowflake is so pretty. Great textures! Great job on the sketch! It looks hard.
Ah, I see that you've mastered the sketch...magnificently I might add! Love the beautiful papers that you used and that snowflake is just darling! Awesome work, as usual!
So festive and fun, Marisa. That really is a designer's sketch! You did a fabulous job with it.
Fabulous! LOVE that big snowflake! I need it! LOL! Thanks for enabling me....just what I need!
Never doubted you for a minute Marisa!! You're too talented!! xxx
I think you've done well!!! Definitely churned my brain cells..didn't get a card done but, may have to try, that is "try" !!!!
Marisa, you do such beautiful things with die cuts! This is no exception!
Marisa this reminds me of a card that I would see in a magazine. Have you ever submitted your cards for publication? You should, as you do beautiful work. This is phenomenal!
Awesome sketch and great Christmas card.
WOW! I would never have guessed that you even gave this a second glance. LOVE the snowflake and those papers are just lovely. Seriously a fabulous card!!
