Nutcracker Sweet

Hi Everyone!!! I hope this weekend has been a blast today is the Design Team's reveal of the new sketch at sketchesforyou2.  This is what we had to work with

I had immediate visions of a beautiful bow on a present,  and what a better time to give than Christmas

Well as you may know I love nutcrackers and Christmas and so I decided to incorporate

my 2012 wishlist for nutcrackers in my page.

The photos are of the brand new release by Kurt Adlers collection of pastel painted beauties.

I started collecting way back when my son was born, it was a boy thing that evolved the moment my daughter was born.  Now I needed girly painted ones... so here it is what I did

the cake and the cupcake...

the bow is totally functional, just wanted you to see the dimension I gave it

the title is wet embossed from the new Graphic 45 Nutcracker collection

I have the stamps but I am still waiting for the paper

I made some paper feathers to give it more dimension, I have to confess

I thought about doing a paper feather wreath...

maybe I will later on

So I hope you enjoyed my interpretation as much as I loved making it!

I would love to see your visions of the sketch so please don't forget to upload to the blog's gallery on the link above!!!
