Sugar Creek Hollow DT sketch challenge for October



It's time for another design team sketch challenge from Sugar Creek Hollow.  I rotated the sketch 90 degrees for my card.  I chose the Christmas Joy stamp.  This image is so pretty.  I printed it on green DP and though it's hard to see in the picture I changed some of the flourishes and made them green as well.  I couldn't resist when I saw that Spellbinders had cardinals now.  (speaking of which, SCH has the prettiest little cardinal in their new Christmas line that I can't wait to use!) I have placed this one on a branch that is covered with my glitter snow writer.  I also used that on my new Tim Holtz bare tree. 



If you decide to make a card using this challenge sketch leave me a comment with a link to your card.  I'd love to see it!   

Don't forget to check out what the other design team  members created.  You can find links to all of their blogs on the right side bar of my blog.  You'll be glad you did!

Renee,
Yes it was me who requested the info about changing digi image colors. I still really, really want the info! Can you email it to me? I have Microsoft Word, if it is in that format. Here is my email: tolliveratha@cinci.rr.com

Thank you so much, Lisa

sorry it's taken me so long to let you know how beautiful your card is still playing catch-up from the flu. Your layering is fabulous and the winter tree is a great idea.
