I managed to sneak in some crafty time yesterday so I have a few cards to share with you over the coming week. First up is a card for this week's challenge over at SUO Challenges, that uses the sketch layout over at TGIF Challenges:

I love the Christmas mix and match products, so I was keen to have the opportunity to really get into it and make a card. Take a look at what I came up with:

Here's the low-down on today's card:
Whilst I kept with the products from the collection and in particular the green plaid card card base, I changed up my layout using the sketch over at TGIF Challenges and layered a central panel of my most favourite design in the pack:

I added a piece of retired red DSP from an old pack, along with a gold twine bow and some gold pearls to finish off my card. I love that the envelope flaps in the card pack have a plaid pattern too; I also added some ephemera like the samples on page 14 for a festive finishing touch:

No stamping on this card; just a fun time mixing and matching the pieces in the packs. Lots more to play with leftover too!
Here is the visual summary of the key products used on today's project for you to pin for easy reference:

Enjoy your day and I'll be back tomorrow with another project. Until then, happy stampin'!
