First Holiday Card

Good morning, hope your day is going well.  Getting ready for the weekend.  I will be working but I only have a couple of more weekends to work.  I am officially retiring on December 31, 2013.  I can't wait!  It has been a short 20 years working in the health care field for me but things are changing rapidly.  anyhow here is my first holiday card.
I used the Sweet Sketch Wednesday 231 this week.  I loved working with this sketch!  The adorable image is from the sponsor Meljens Designs.  She has all of her digital images 50% off this month.  There are tons of really cute designs.  I purchased quite a few and plan on purchasing more.  My card is 6 X 6, my favorite size.  The paper is all from Stampin' Up!  I colored my image with Copics and used glitter on the snow.  I will be entering this card in Sweet Sketch Wednesday's Challenge this week.  I am really in the mood to make holiday cards now.  I have lots of cute images to work with.  Thanks so much for stopping by and have a sweet day!

    I loved BOTH of your holiday cards (tho that little Mimi from Stamp Fairy won my heart). Thanks for sharing them both with us over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday.
