House of Cards November Challenge - a sketch

Good afternoon and welcome to my DT post for the House of Cards Challenge blog. This month we have a great sketch challenge for you too combine with any of our card making styles.


I am on the Cute and Fun DT, so of course I went with a cute image on my card. I used the cute Charlotte and Christmas Candy Cane image from Milk Coffee. Isn't she just adorable?! I kept to more traditional Christmas colours as this one is for my MIL to use for her Christmas cards.
