Tonight’s card is for the Inspired by a Christmas Carol challenge at Holly Jolly Christmas and the tall & skinny sketch at Mojo Monday.
My usual go to Christmas songs are Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and Frosty the Snowman. I mentioned to my husband that I wanted to do a song challenge and he said Silent Night. I remembered I had a few stamp sets from Verve that were released last year and chose Weary World and O Holy Night as my song.
I broke my rule of using the papers I chose for this month. I didn’t have anything traditional in that pile so I used Bo Bunny’s Christmas Cottage from last year. I wrapped some twine from The Twinery around my card panel before gluing it down. The image was colored with my Zig Color Clean brushes, it’s been awhile since I used them.
Here is the sketch~

Stamps: Verve Stamps Weary World
Ink: Ranger Archival Potting Soil, SU Night of Navy

Love that carol, Oh Holy Night – and the manger scene is appropriate to go with it.
