{Bearing Gifts...} TCP Tuesday 139

Merry Christmas to you all!!!


It is our very last 2010  TCP Tuesday challenge and this weeks' challenge is a sketch challenge, cooked up by our Hipster Hostess Alma. Play along for a chance of winning $25 in Cat Cash and being crowned the Swankiest Stamper of the month!!! For all the deets please stop by Alma's Blog HERE.

Ouh and before I forget...here's the sketch:

I did something a little bit different this week: I used the sketch to decorate the gifts I'm giving to my hair stylist and my pilates instructor. Wanna know what's in it? Trader Joe's sea salt covered dark chocolate caramels...ooh they are SOO good!!! lol
I got the idea for the gift wrapping from my very talented and clever SFYTT Sister Megan Lock. She made this cutie here for last week's SFYTT challenge.

Tips'n Tricks: to get that full beautiful flower-like medallion cut out two lotuses and simply layer them on top of each.

Here are some detail shots from my project:

 

Thank you so much for stopping by and Happy Holidays!!!
