So i'm extremely late posting my card for Sweet Sketch Wednesday, we've had a power cut today and it has messed up my broadband badly, have been using my phone for emails and I'm now dreading next month's bill. Oh well, at least i'm back online now and ready to update you all on this weeks sketch. Arlana has given us another beauty. Check it out.

I got this cutie to play with.
I used promarkers to colour him and added some chalking behind him and around the candle. I tried to get the glow of the candle right on his fur by using the Mustard promarker as my lightest colour instead of Raw Sienna and it sorta worked, his belly is a bit off maybe. The papers are from the Silent Night Papermania pad, (Yep, it's still going strong!) The flowers were punched out from the back paper using the big Nellie Snellen flower punch and embosser. I added a little bit of fluffy stuff to his socks and hat bobble. Check out my fellow DT's work this week, it's fantastic as always. See ya at Sweet Sketch Wednesday.
