Red, Cream and Gold Christmas


Just a quick post from me this evening, as I'm skidding in by the seat of my pants to a couple of challenges that close this evening!

I spotted that this week's Penny Black Blog challenge is red, cream and gold, and as luck would have it I had a PB poinsetta image already inked up and ready to go ... so I sought out some tradtional coloured papers, plugged in to a sketch and here's the result.


Recipe:
Main image: Penny Black "Ponsetta" coloured wtih Marvey markers and distressed with TH "Antique Linen" distress ink;
Sentiment: LotV Christmas sentiment circles;
Papers: Papermania "Silent Night" collection;
Supplies: ribbon, pearls and lace from my stash;
Tools: small circle nestabilities.

Challenges:
Penny Black Blog - Red, Cream and Gold
Cupcake - Birthday Sketch

Totally Papercrafts #80 - Christmas In August

Gotta dash so I can link up before the challenges close :-) Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
