Holiday Peeker from behind the wreath!

Happy Friday everyone!  Here I am with a Christmas card using the gorgeously sweet Holiday Peekers - Festive Welcome by Elisabeth Bell for SCACD...


 Oh my, she is so ADORABLE!  This card is definitely going to my grandma - she will just love this sweetie!  And even though I am her eldest granddaughter she will remember me as the sweet 6 year old she used to babysit!

Here's a close up where you can see I used some Fluffy Stuff on her clothing trim...


 I used papers from My Minds Eye 12 Days of Christmas pad and the snowflake is from the Marianne D Creatables Swedish Ice Star die set.

And do you like the layout?  I used my sketch for this month's Quixotic Inspiration challenge and I just flipped it on its side.  Go to this post here to join in for a chance to win your own gorgeous Quixotic Paperie goodies!
