If I've ever wanted my CAS abilities to shine, it would be when Cecile is our Sketch designer! I hope my card meets with her approval! Here is her lovely Freshly Made Sketch #761:
That oval was screaming for a scene and I have been wanting to
incorporate one of these gorgeous LaLaLand papers a dear friend
sent to me - let's start with my closeup so you can see it a little better...
all that I added were splatters in white, white gold, and warm gold, too!
A Spellbinders oval die was used to cut the aperture from
a warm white card front - I also used it for the snowflakes from
Reverse Confetti, and 'peace' from PTI. The same Gansai Tambi
watercolor paint that was used for the splatter was used to
color the sentiment and snowflakes, too.
You can't imagine how much I wanted a sentiment that read:
It's Christmastime in the City!
Okay, we really have to go see what my teammates have added
to Cecile's sketch - I look forward to seeing how YOU use it even more!

What a pretty scene, Michele! That paper in the background is beautiful and your splatters make it feel even more chilly! Peaceful and beautiful, my friend.
Stunning! Yep, those papers are works of art and you made it spectacular with the opening, die cut word and snowflakes. Magnifico!
Marvelous use of that gifted paper, Michele! This is lovely!
The dp is so beautiful and your interpretation of the challenge is gorgeous!
This card is even more beautiful in real life Michele...it's perfection! I love the scene, the splatters, the snowflakes, the oval aperture, and the love gold peace sentiment! GORGEOUS card my friend!! Hugs. :0)
These papers went into the right hands, for sure! I love the extra splatters and well done on painting your sentiment!
So elegant, Michele. I can hear the song in my head. You are a master at this.
Gorgeous card!
What an absolutely perfect peaceful scene!
I am so in love with the La La Land city papers, and this is a perfect way to use them and a perfect take on the sketch!! I am going to make a bunch of these! Thanks for the inspiration!! xx
That last comment was me. This happens when I comment at work between between check outs. LOL!
That is such a lovely soft scene to go in your oval and the splatters are the perfect finishing touch xx
