Seasons Greetings

Hello-

There are several challenges I'd like to play in and they are all expiring soon. 
So first off this entry for:
CAS Watercolor Challenge, (cool colors Blue print sketch, Salty Ocean,
Mowed Lawn and  Dusty Concord) 
ABC Christmas Challenge  (Option B, last row of tic tac toe) and
Addicted to CAS (Frosty, Snowflake, and frosted gem).



I created a watercolor washed square using Distress Inks in Blueprint Sketch, Salty Ocean, Mowed Lawn and just a touch of Dusty Concord.  I overlaid a diecut snowflake from Lawn Fawn, added a clear embossed sentiment from MFT and topped it all with a single frosted gemstone.
   

Thanks so much for visiting.
