Over the river and through the wood....

...to Grandfather's house we go; the horse knows the way, to carry the sleigh, through the white and drifted snow, Oh! *grin* I've been humming this song the whole time I was making this card... I think it turned out really cute. Check out the little tag on the front of the jeep! Now that's the Christmas spirit!! I bet their singing Christmas carols inside too! Woo-hoo, my kinda bunch! Take me, take me!








This is my submission to the Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge #89. It's been awhile since I've done one of Taylor's challenges, so I thought I'd join this week's fun. This was a great sketch too! I stamped "Getting the Family Tree" from Eat Cake Graphics onto some Classic Crest CS and colored them with my Copics to match this great DP from Basic Grey. Of course, I HAD to pick some DP with Christmas trees, right? I matted the image with some burgundy CS from DCWV and the card base is Bazzil green. I stitched around the edges of the image and the card base and to complete the sketch design, I added this Happy Holidays stamp from the SU set "Riveting". Now a card just isn't complete without ribbon right, so I finished with some twill ribbon tied in a cute little bow. You like?? Me too!! Be sure to leave a comment below and I hope you have a great day. Ok, back to the song.... over the river and through the wood.. la-la, la-la, la-la!!!

Supplies:
Rubber Stamps - Eat Cake Graphics, Stampin Up; Twill ribbon; CS - Classic Crest Whie, DCWV Burgundy, Bazzil Green; Colorbox Chalk Ink; Copics; DP - Basic Grey
