I needed layout inspiration for a card using with the Stampin’ Up! Trimming the Town Suite from the 2020 Mini Holiday Catalog. I took a peek at my Stampin’ Pretty Sketchbook and Sketch #2 was exactly what I was looking for.

What gorjuss card! It takes me back to my childhood, and reminds me of the many happy times shared with my family! It reminds me of the place we spent at Christmas, surrounded by pine trees! Thanks for sharing:-)

Darling card Mary. When it popped up on my computer screen, it brought a smile to my face.
What a cute card from someone who doesn’t like to create scenes. Great job! I love the idea of using the DSP for the house and trees- it’s already colored!! Very clever! Enjoy your day!
Such a charming little card my friend. Going to be using this set today.
