A Scenic Christmas

This is my second post today, be sure to scroll down to see my Card Patterns card and the fabulous sketch!

The sketch this week from Unscripted Sketches:

For my card I incorporated the JUGS challenge to use a photo and make a holiday card. This card went together so quickly! Just over half an hour, and it used all scraps, gotta love that! Very simple for me - ie. no sewing and such.
Pattern Paper: Scenic Route
Cardstock: Kraft (PTI), other (CTMH)
Stamp: PTI
hemp & bells: stash
Punches: Marvy

Laurel this is beautiful. At first I had to think about "where's the photo" cause I thought your snow covered trees were a STAMP! LOL Cute accent with the jingle bells, too. Thanks so much for playing along with Just Us Girls - BE sure to email us (there's a link in our left sidebar) so we can email you your set.
