Happy Friyay Everyone!
It’s Christmas in July Day 26 and today I got to play with a stamp set that I purchased last Christmas but never played with – the Festive Flamingo set from My Favorite Things. I wanted to enter the current Christmas Card Throwdown challenge this week – the theme is ‘non-traditional image’ and I thought a flamingo would fit the bill!
I decided to use the sketch from this week’s Freshly Made Sketches challenge so used an Echo Park stencil to ground the image. Now that I’m looking at my card on screen, I wonder if I should have chosen yellow rather than blue – to represent the sun’s rays! That would make it even less traditional! Ah well, next time!
Thank for stopping by!

I definitely agree that your Flamingo is not a traditional image. I love your card. Thanks for playing along with our challenge over at 52CCT.

This is such a cute image. I love how you used the sketch to just put a hint of pattern behind him. Thank you for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.
