I've used the sketch from Christmas Card Throwdown - CCT#17 for the layout - so pleased to be playing along. As it's a one layer card with a coloured in element I'm going to play along with Less is More - LIM#345. There's an owl on here so I'm going to enter AAA Cards - AAA#98 as they want creatures great and small.
I used my MISTI to stamp the owl, removed the card and coloured the owl. I put the card back in the MISTI and stamped it again in Versafine Onyx Black and heat embossed with clear powder. Next I stamped the zig-zag lines to match the owl's clothes. Again, using the MISTI makes this process very easy. I finished the front with a simple sentiment. On the inside I cut a mat layer of black card and on the white panel added a Christmas greeting.
I've really settled back into my regular routine. I've recently added an aquarobics class on Monday morning - it's so much fun, but I think I've rediscovered muscles that I'd forgotten I had!!! That's it for now. Take care.

Gorgeous card, Deborah ! I love how you combined the three challenges ! This sketch is fabulous as well as your card ! Lovely Christmas colouring for this cute owl ! Thanks so much for sharing and for playing along at Less is More !
It's good to see you and I'm pleased you are getting back into things. I need to do more exercise myself, swimming and walking, I think. I'm impressed by the fact that this is one layer. I thought at first that your owl was cut out.
Great card and very clever.
Thanks for playing along at Christmas Card Throwdown.
Elle est trop belle Deborah cette carte, ce petit hibou est si charmant, j'aime ces oiseaux si paisible, merci de jouer avec nous chez CCT, biz
Love this Christmas owl. Not a traditional character but in traditional colours it works. Great tip about restamping and heat embossing afterwards.
Thanks so much for sharing with us at Less is More, Anita x
