This day of the week always brings Flutter By Wednesday at Danni´s Dreams and this week along with your butterfly or fairy there is the option to follow a sketch. I have followed the sketch at Sketch and Stash, thank you girls I will definitely use this lots of times.
For my card I have inked up Melinda Helping Angel from WOJ and coloured her with my Prisma´s then added Gold Glamour Dust to her wings but must admit I do prefer the Crystal.
Backing papers are from Bearly Mine Extreme I, gold mirri board, silk flower and tartan ribbon are from my stash and the snowflake brads are from Papermania. This sketch just cried out Christmas to me so now I have my first card made ... lots more to go though.
Our feautured stamper this week is Lelia so do stop by her blog and leave her some love.

lovely card.poppy
what a sweet card honey, love the tartan ribbon. hugs rachxx
Wow Nicola, great Christmas card, glad to see you're starting early, I too am trying to get some done as soon as possible, otherwise it will be a rush job like last year. Love all the snowflake brads, and I really love the tartan ribbon, perfect xmas colors. Your coloring on Melinda is fabulous, I'm so crap at the shading, but you've got it just right.
BTW, between you and me.......we're right in the middle with the guesses. LOL
What a fantastic chimbo card Nicola. I do love the non traditional and you've chose the perfect image. Enjoy the rest of your week, take care!
