Merry Monday 27

Here's the Merry Monday challenge #27 sketch....

and here's the card I made for the challenge. I used dsp's from the Lilybee Jingle stack, adding Baja Breeze and Cherry Cobbler card stock as well. The sentiment is by Inkadinkado, and the tree image is from the SU! Contempo Christmas stamp set; and both were done on matching dsp from the same paper pad. I added some Spica glitter pen accents to the tree and star, and embossed the Baja Breeze panel with the Swiss dots EF from CB. I used SB petite oval dies for the image, and word window & fancy label punches for the sentiment.
My computer is crawling like molasses today, taking up to ten minutes to load a picture! I feel like I'm back into the dial-up era with these slow-motion pages loading! I hope things soon improve!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great week ahead!

This is such a sweet little tree and I love the colors you used, Carol! I have a computer that's old and goes so sloooow. Sometimes cleaning the registry helps. Just a thought. Thanks for sharing with us at Merry Monday this week!
