The House That Stamps Built: Sketch Challenge

 We have 5 Wednesday's this month so we get a Sketch Challenge from 

                                                                        Image may contain: screen, text that says 'REPEAT IMPRESSIONS Sketch #D3020'

 My take on Wendy's sketch:

 
I went with a Christmas card featuring Repeat Impressions 
These three gifts, embossed with Pearlescent embossing
powder.  Background is Distress Oxides: cracked
pistachio, worn lipstick, and seedless preserves. 
The colors lightened when I sprayed them with
a glimmer mist for a nice soft look.
 
Join our weekly challenge, you might just 
be the lucky winner of the monthly drawing for the
 $25 Repeat Impression's  gift certificate. you don't have to use
Repeat Impression stamps but an extra chance if you do.  
Drawing is the first Wednesday every month.

    The soft, shimmery colors look wonderful on this pretty card and the sentiment is perfect for the times we're living in! Those little gemstone accents make this a very special Christmas creation!

    Very pretty - and as I was reading this I thought - "this could be used just about anytime). Love the blending of the oxide inks, great job. Sending wishes for a Happy New Year.

    Absolutely beautiful card, my sweet friend. I adore the confectionary worthy hues and how welcome they feel at this dark, chilly time of the year - like a lovely reminder that spring is just a few months off.

    Many hugs & the very happiest of wishes for a safe, serene, joy-filled, and abundantly blessed 2021 coming your way!

    Unexpected colors for a Christmas card, but so lovely and soothing. Love how you've interpreted the sketch with the blended colorways and then repeated on the mat framing. So pretty. TFS & Happy New Year. Hugs. Mary H.
