52 Christmas Card Throwdown (August Sketch)

         Hi Crafty Friends.  I am your hostess for August at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown Challenge.

The first challenge of the month is always a sketch challenge.  Here is my sketch for this month. I hope you like it and have fun with your creations.

When I designed this sketch I new I would use snowflakes, but had a different picture in my mind. I recently purchased this cover plate and that became the starting point. I smooshed the die-cut panel in various colours of Distress Oxide Inks. 

I die-cut 4 layers of the sentiment to make it extra chunky. 

Dies: Memory Box Pinpoint Snowflake Die; W& W Merry; 

I hope you'll visit the 52 Christmas Card Throwdown blog to see what our fabulous  Design Team created with these colours and then be inspired to join in the challenge!

Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog! I love to read your comments:)
