How are those Christmas cards coming? Not done, yet? Well, we have the perfect challenge for you on the Love To Scrap Challenge Blog: It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas. How easy is that?! Our three sponsors are:
Kith & Kin Stamp Co.
I was given this fabulous image from Kith & Kin Stamp Co. This is one of those images that just really comes to life when you color it up. Isn't he adorable?
Here's a free tip for you: If you don't have metal embellishments to match your color scheme, spray paint them. I really wanted to use the star brads that I had, but they were a matte silver color which didn't fit with the gold accents on my image. So I spray painted them with gold paint and now they are perfect! Also, the gold mat behind image is actually recycled wrapping paper. It's got a really great texture to it.Head on over to the LTSCB and check out what the rest of the DT created for this challenge. Then come back and play, I can't wait to see what you come up with.

Beautiful card! Great tips for creating coordinating embellishments. Thanks for sharing with us at Christmas Card Challenges.
Great ideas for coloring the metal embellishments. I always use my lack of the perfect accent as a reason to go shop ... not good! Such a pretty card too. Thanks so much for joining in the sketch fun this week.
