30 Days 30 Cards - Day 4

Hi Everyone.... Janey here.  I hope you remembered to set your clocks back for that extra hour of sleep!  We are on Day 4 of our 30 Cards in 30 Days challenge here at Memory Works.  I'm hoping you will have fun with today's sketch. This PageMap sketch is totally out of the norm for a Christmas card, but I took the challenge and love how it turned out!  

PageMap Sketch

I used cardstock from my personal stash and the Farm House Fair Skies Collection 6x6 pad and cut out the card and the balloon as well as the layers for the balloon with my die-cut machine.  I embossed the cream colored layer of the card.  The clouds were cut from My Mind's Eye - All Is Bright Collection.  I added We R Memory Keepers Baker's Twine - Green.  I then used Zva Mixed Dots for a little bling.  The "Peace" Chipboard is from My Mind's Eye - All is Bright Collection.  I sprayed Tattered Angels Pearl Glimmer Mist for a little sparkle.  Of course all the edges of the papers were inked with Tim Holtz Inks.  

I hope you enjoy todays sketch and I can't wait to see what you come up with!  Make sure when you are participating that you TAG your card 30days30cards in the gallery post to qualify.  It will help us pick a winner more easily.  Also, in each studio post, please make sure you post your card in the designated thread, gallery or blog.  Come back tomorrow for more inspiration as we continue 30 Days 30 Cards.
