Good Morning all I hope you are all well and have had a good weekend, It is Monday and time for a new challenge at Sketch N Stash, this time it is My Sketch.
For my card I have used this gorgeous image called Hallo Fairy from Mo's Digital Pencil, I have coloured him with Promarkers and Fleximarkers, I have added glamour dust to give it some sparkle, Xcut rectangle dies backing papers are old from Dovecraft and Papermaina, Memory box snowflake corner and border dies, Ribbon and crystal snowflakes from stash.
