Sketch Tuesday #56 at Skipping Stones Design with Play Date Cafe


Hi there ~ is everyone ready for Christmas?  I've got all of my shopping done but as usual I haven't wrapped one gift!  Even the two I need to mail to California for my niece and nephew!  I know, I need to get off the computer and wrap them so I can get to the post office tomorrow at lunch.  But before I do that I want to share my take on this week's Sketch Tuesday at Skipping Stones Design.  Here is the sketch for you to play along, be sure to use SSD 56 if you link to any online galleries.

I flipped the sketch upside down so I could fit the reflection of the cute little penguin from the new set Brrthday.  I also thought this set would be perfect for the color challenge at The Play Date Cafe to use Black and White with a splash of Yellow:

Here's a close up of my take on PDCC#60:

 Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you and yours have a wonderful holiday season!
