Truly Scrumptious DT - Dawn's sketch

Here is my effort for this week's Truly Scrumptious challenge which is a fab sketch by the lovely Dawn with the theme of texture.

This week we are pleased to welcome back Pink Gem Designs as our sponsor. Pink Gem Designs was launched excactly one year ago today. They design and stock some of the cutest and whimsical clear polymer stamps around. The stamps are designed by Janet and manufactured in the UK by a specialist polymer company. The winner of this challenge will receive this adorable stamp as their prize.

Remember, you need to use the sketch and include the theme to be in with a chance to win this cutie. Check out the fab creations by the other DT:'s.

I used Basic Grey's Fruitcake papers and the Santa with Tree from Sugar Nellies Home Grown collection. Santa is coloured with Copics and I've added funflock to his furry bits and liquid pearls to his beard as my texture. The bands across the card are wired leafs I've had forever and the snowflakes are punched with a Woodware punch. I stamped snowflakes (origin unkown) around the edge of the image, used a sentiment from Inkadinkado and brads from stash.




Excuse the short post - I'm desperate to get all my work onto my new computer and send this badly behaved one to that great resting place for computers in the sky. Hopefully I will be back later with some picture from the NEC - who knows.
