It's Tuesday and that means it's time for another Tuesday Morning Sketch challenge and this week we're working on sketch #475 designed by Melissa.
I had no clue where to start with this sketch as I have nothing with a paisley design, but eventually it occured to me that snowflakes would be nice, so here's where this sketch led me...
I dug into my stash and pulled out some soft blue SU! dsp that's been long retired. It reminded me of snow with the delicate patterns, so I used 3 different snowflake punches and 2 other mini punches to make the centers. I dotted each of the snowflakes with sparkling Nuvo drops and they look light blue on top of the navy punched elements. I also added a few scattered Nuvo drops around the card randomly as well. The sentiment was die-cut with a Cottage Cutz die and some matching Navy cardstock.
Ok, now it's your turn, but before you go - be sure and check out my fabulous DT's creations over on the Tuesday Morning Sketches Blog for some wonderful inspiration.
Here is the prize you'll be playing for this week:
Happy Crafting and make it a great Tuesday! Thanks for stopping by:)

Very pretty Christmas card. The patterned paper does look like ornate snowflakes. Lovely job and what a fun sketch.
Lovely card Carol, love the pretty paper. xx
Snowflakes are delightful and they look pretty on your blue patterned paper, very frosty feeling and a great interpretation of the sketch, not an easy one so good job :) x
Gorgeous take on the sketch Carol! I love those papers and especially how you've paired it with the touches of navy blue and white snowflakes! The little drops around the design make this really elegant looking! I love it! HUGS
Good idea using snowflakes for the sketch paisley!! Love the soft and delicate feel of your card! Another Christmas card on your pile, uh? :D
Hugs!
Your card is so gorgeous. The background paper is perfect with the snowflakes.
Fun card, Carol. I have those same punches. They look good, and I like the way you layered the centers for added dimension. We've already laughed over the fact that our creative Muses must have been together this week (smile). Great use of the sketch.
Pretty Christmas card, the sketch is ideal as one can do anything for it. Love your snowflakes...hugs.
I love this Carol, so much so that I will be casing it. A Super card.

Perfect paper as a background for the snowflakes! This is really pretty!!
This has a beautiful vintage winter look that I love Carol! I love the navy against the light blue and white too!! At first I thought it was black and light blue which reminded me of my daughters wedding :)
Such a beautiful Christmas card. I love the pattern on the card base and the punched snowflakes are so lovely.
