Stamping 411 Sketch Challenge #166

I love playing with the Sketches at Stamping 411.  They are always so fun to work with!  This week I was inspired by their sketch but did not have an oval shape so I copied a cool idea from my new stamping pal Nance and her "Wicked Cool" card that inspired me is HERE.  I used the Two Tags Die in a new way....

I pulled out my Two Tags Die.  I used the largest tag from the die and used it to represent the oval shape on the sketch!!!  I also used some of the fabulous new In Colour DSP from the Hostess Level One set in Pear Pizzazz and paired it with Real Red.  The stamp set "Big On Christmas" is one of my favourites and seemed perfect for this layout. I also made another card using this sketch but will share that for our next Paper Players Challenge on Sunday.  I can see myself using this sketch again and again!

Thanks for stopping by!
