Stamp Off Beautiful Blizzard Serene Garden Sketch

It's another Stamp Off Friday, with Buffy, Susan

and I.  We love sharing our Friday challenges.

This week, we are working on a sketch challenge,

designed by Susan.  Susan has been on a roll when it comes to

designing our challenges!

I really like this sketch, but had to think about which

products would work.  I turned the sketch vertical,

and felt that got the job done.

First, I pulled out my Wood Textures DSP pack (p 191)

because I knew that I wanted kind of a neutral base, 

that would not distract from this lovely

Serene Garden (p 166) dove.  I cut the dove out with the 

coordinating Garden Scene Framelits (p 217).  

The sentiment from Lift Me Up on page 34

worked perfectly with the dove, which was colored

with Stampin Blends.

Finally, I stamped some of the splotches from

Beautiful Blizzard (Holiday Catty p 39).

The swirl behind the dove worked perfectly

with the other elements.  That is one of the

reasons that I adore the Beautiful Blizzard set!

Given all the texture stamps, it's not just for Christmas.

Thank you for stopping by, and now it's time

to click on over to Buffy and Susan's sites,

to check out their challenge cards.
