{BYSHC} Spring Linky Party

 I am having fun this week working on building up my stash of holiday cards with the {BYSHC} "Spring Into Christmas" Linky party.  It runs from today through April 28th and is the first of three opportunities to get a jump start on your holiday cards with Linky Parties before next December.  

For this card, I used Sketch #31 and went with non-traditional Christmas colors from my paper collection. 

A couple of the blue papers had splatters, but I added a few more by diluting the white gold cake from my Kuretake Watercolor box.  You can see that I also splattered the cute reindeer from Unity's Simple Little Joys stamp set.  That darling image is colored with a blend of Copics and OLO brown markers and framed using silver glitter paper cut from Kaisercraft Hanging Script Bauble die.  I tied it with some red twine to compliment the bits of red around the reindder, then added three silver embellishments and a silver foil sentiment from my collection of Pinkfresh Studios holiday sentiment pack.

I hope you will make some time to join us this week.  Link your card or cards on the BYSCH Blog.  I can't wait to see what you create!  Good luck!  Thanks for stopping by my blog!

In kindness, Cathy
