I recently found a great website that offers a different card sketch each day. Susan at Card Sketch A Day creates a new sketch every day and offers visitors a chance to create a card and post it on her blog. You then need to post it to your blog on the same day it is released. I loved her sketches and asked for a Christmas Tree sketch (she works a month in advance so that is why I got the Christmas Tree). I knew what set I wanted to use but worried about the size. I ended up having to make a 5 x 7 card instead of the invitation size. I added lots of glitter and Stickles to the trees so they are sparkly. I really like how this card turned out and will modify it to make some to send out this Christmas. Here is the sketch and my creation.
Here is a picture of the tree so you can see the sparkle.
