Almost halfway there

I liked this little Pure Innocence Christmas girl so much I decided to make another card featuring her. This one uses the current sketch from Sketch Saturday.  The image is colored in pencils, with Spica pen and Stickles on her ornaments.  The flowers have Stickles on the centers.  They are mounted on a circle and a scalloped circle cut with Nesties and my Cuttlebug.
The sentiment is a clear sticker.  The green papers are from a Echo Park mat stack I have almost used up now.
We're into July, so we're almost halfway to Christmas.

I'm entering these challenges:
Sketch Saturday #367 -- sketch
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday -- going dotty
Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge #235 -- two words
Cuttlebug Mania -- use a sentiment
Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Extra -- anything Christmas
Word Art Wednesday #190 -- anything goes

    Pure Innocence has the best stamps. I like this card, sweet and simple. For a brief moment there your card had me thinking I could have a Christmas card making party. Whew, luckily I came to my senses and decided to go back to ignoring Christmas.
