Pile It On! Challenge - Sketch

This week at Pile It On! we have a fabulous sketch for you to use, designed by our lovely Katie:


Our sponsor this week is Digital Delights:


Prize - $5 Gift Certificate for Digital Delights

I've used the sketch to make a Christmas card...using 'Angel Cat' by Penny Black, which I coloured using watercolour pencils, adding some sparkle to his wings with some Stickles. The papers are a mixture of My Mind's Eye 'Boo to You!' (Orange), 'Colourful Christmas' (Pink) and Bo Bunny 'Whoo-ligans' (Purple)...I added some faux stitching using my CutterBee Bug and a black gel pen. The sentiment is a stamp from a set by Lili of the Valley, the green ribbon is from Poppicrafts (which closed down years ago...so it shows how long it's been sitting in my stash!), and the buttons are by papermnia and are threaded with some Dovecraft twine.


Here are the challenges I've piled on:
For more inspiration from my lovely DT buddies, please pop over to the Pile It On! Challenge.
