Deck the Halls ...

As the weather drops below the freezing point here in the Midwest, we're anxiously awaiting the first good snow at my house!  I know ... I know ... there's just something about it that still gets me excited.  Tonight we finished decking the halls in our home and with that in mind, I chose a new card to share with you.

I simply loved the Sheetload sketch for this month.  Also, it was easy to get inspired with all of the cute digital stamps from Doodle Palace. Take a look at my first of 3 cards in this month's issue below.  I've been using my Prisma pencils and Gamsol a lot lately. It's also been like a new discovery for me.  I like the tonality that can be achieved using the little blending stubbies. 

This card also gave me a chance to use something in my craft room that I've never used before ... my flock!  I remember when it came out in the store and because it was 'new' I just HAD to have it!  Gee ... how many times have we all done that? 

As always a full description of the supplies I used can be found in the December Sheetload.  Hmmm ... I wonder if it's starting to snow ... looks like it's time for some hot chocolate!
