Thank you for being a friend

Has it really been 2 weeks since i finished my last card. How time flies when you're getting ready for Christmas.

Well, this morning I've been keeping myself busy with this sketch from the Sweet Stop:

I rotated it and here's what I came up with:

I used some  cardstock and scrapbook paper that I found among my 'old' stuff and I masked my Magnolia stamp with (again) an old stamp that I had. The flowers were made from punches and I used a few dies from Marianne Design.
The stamp was colored with the following markers;
skin: E00-E11-E13-RV13 (sketch markers)
dress: R43-R46-R59 (sketch)
hair: O928-O427-O324(pro)
cat: O527-O325-O837(flex)

This card will be entered in the following competitions:
The sweet stop: sketch
Magnolia Down Under: Colour challenge (red-cream and gold)
Totally Tilda: Make a 'Thank you' card

Hopefully the postman will bring me the stamps I ordered from the new collection today.
Can't wait to get started with those.

For now....Happy Holidays
