Sketch Option
Theme Options: Wee Folk (Fairies, Elves, Gnomes etc.)/Trees/Friendship
Product / Technique Options: Glitter/Splatts
I thought I'd go for something in all four categories! Instead of the Christmasy-looking tree in the sketch, I went for a fall tree with some matte & glittery pumpkin colored leaves. I used chocolate dotted paper for the ground and some cherry colored patterned paper for the vertical stripes behind it. Ivory is an allowed neutral so I used that for my background base, rather than white - less stark that way, I thought. I ink-blended it with some Sunkissed ink, then adhered it to an orange card. Finally, I stamped, fussy cut & colored a sweet little gnome & added it along with a puffy sentiment sticker duo to finish the card.
Lucky me, my friend Gundi in Germany (papierelle) sent me this adorable card and some papers. I just love the kitty with the pumpkin head & I'll make good use of the papers. Thanks Gundi!!

So beautifully designed, Linda. Love it and the little gnome is so cute!
What a fun and vibrant celebration of the season!
Your little gnome is a cutie! You had me with his polka dot hat and the polka dot hill he's standing on! Delightful card, Linda!
Well done for using all the options. Don't those colours look wonderful and such a great take on the sketch. Lucky you receiving that fun card and those papers from Gundi xx
I love the Fall leaves and gnome. He fits perfectly.
Gorgeous card Linda. And what a beautiful card from Gundi
A lovely and funny card. The little gnome seems to be busy collecting leaves.
Linda, your card is an absolute treat for the eyes. Honestly, the talent here could make a glue stick proud. The colours, the whole lot, pure crafty joy!! I’m off to my desk now, feeling inspired and slightly underdressed for the occasion! Gorgeous makes all round! 🌟
Beautiful card and well done using all the options, love the tree and Autumn leaves and the little cute gnome.
