Stampin’ Up! “Floral Frames” Goes Christmas for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Hi Stampers, Today for our hop we have a sketch challenge and/or a color challenge.  We had our pick,  do one of the challenges or, if we really felt the creative juices  flowing we could do both.  I forgot that this week was a combined challenge and already made my card from the sketch so I followed the sketch only.  Oh, but do I see a Alternate Monday card coming to mind…you will have to wait and see.

Here is the sketch:
