Merry Days Sleigh

TGIF everyone!! I'm trying to ramp up the Christmas card production and created this card for the current Christmas Kickstart Challenge:


Supplies: Paper - BoBunny Yuletide Carol 6x6;
Paper Studio Holiday; Tim Holtz Kraft Metallic
Dies - Poppystamps Capri Sleigh (retired)
A Jillian Vance Design Stitched Dot Rectangles;
Michael's gems
Other - Tim Holtz Christmas Layers (2020);

Because the sleigh has a vintage feel, I perused my piles of paper pads to find the perfect match. BoBunny's Yuletide Carol Collection from 2018 fit the bill. I thought the jumbo 25 from Tim Holtz Christmas Layers pack tied in well with the reverse sentiment strip. I added a black shadow to the sleigh to make it stand out a bit better.

Thanks to Jo & her elf for a fun Christmas challenge!! I'm also adding this to Watercooler Wednesday where my friend Dawn (Dawn's World) is hosting an All Occasions Challenge. Thanks Dawn & WCW team for the inspiration!!

Enjoy your weekend!!
