CAS[E] this Sketch #398

OH, Oh, oh!  you are going to LOve our Sketch this week... do I say that all the time?  Check it out...


See!  didn't I tell you??

Are you ready for my next Colorado Craft installment?  I can't wait to share it!


It's so hard to fit these slimline cards into a photo ... here's a triple 
treat of closeups for you!







Think that steel grey isn't for Christmas?  Maybe Fa la la tickles your fancy more than HO HO HO?  you just might like this version more...


More of that gorgeous Alexandra Renke paper from a few Christmases ago - my little guys have had such a good time decorating!

Now let's go see where the inspiration for Sketch #398 comes from, shall we?  OH!  You can make more than one card this week, too!  wink, wink!  we won't be mad! lol

  14. Well, I LOVE them both, Michele! I love how you used 3 different fonts on the first card and your patterned paper on the 2nd card is just perfect! By the way, I think gray is lovely on a Christmas card...you've proven that today, for sure! xx

  17. Two beautiful Slimline Christmas cards, Michele. I love your color combo and Bold die cut Ho, Ho, Ho with a bit of red and cute little mice. A totally different Bold die cut FaLaLaLa Slimline card for your 2nd card. I loved all your busy little critters and the wonderful Christmas designer paper. TFS Love and Hugs...Nancy

  18. How cute are those little mice pals?
    Both fab cards, but I LOVE the steel grey. Brilliant use of the different fonts.
    That idea is filed away ;-)

  19. OMG, both cards are too cute, Michele! The little mice are unexpected and fun decorations of the bold HO HO HO. Love the wonderful details - paint on "H" and the dry embossing in the background.
    Great job of mixing the pattern papers for the second card. The AR's paper is so pretty!

  21. Oh Michele I'm enthralled with your Colorado craft cards... Those little images are wonderful but the way you used them, your designs... they are even more special!

  22. LOVE those mice! I have a weak spot for rodents, LOL! You did a great job photographing those slimline cards - not easy! I try to stay away from them anyhow....

  23. Such wonderful placement of those darling little critters, Michele. Both cards are magnificent!

  24. OMGoodness! I don't think I can pick favorite!!!! Equally cute! I do love that AR pattern paper though...it's a keeper! Take care!
    Hugs - Red : )

  25. Well now, these are just TOO much. And of course, now I have to have the mice - all of them, and they are mostly out of stock. Your cards are killer fabulous, as always. I would still love to have a brain exchange - just for a day.

  26. Those little mice are amazing by themselves - but your use of them with the Christmas words is even more fabulous!!

  27. These are so gorgeous, Michele! I had to buy several of the Anita Jeram sets as it reminded me so much of reading the book to my two when they were young. You've created such wonderful cards here.
