Yellowstone Christmas

 It's the first Saturday of the month and whilst you may not be thinking of Christmas right now here at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown we continue to create Christmas cards every week in an attempt to get ahead with the demand for holidays. We have a new hostess and this month it is the turn of our very own, lovely Ruth fromFlowersparkle. She's devised this rather good sketch..

  Feel free to interpret the sketch however you like, as long as we can still basically see the elements we're happy.

My card started with the least significant items- the three little elk brads. I bought these in a little craft store I discovered whilst on holiday in Estes Park, Colorado(?) last year. The stamp image is also from my travels, as I bought him in the Yellowstone Park gift store. He is actually in front of some trees, from Lovely As A Tree,stamped in Baja Breeze, but it doesn't show up well in the picture. The sentiment is a magazine freebie and the DP is from SU's Sweater Weather range. This is kind of a masculine Christmas card, I think, I will have to think of who to send it to ;)
