CAS(E) This Sketch Challenge #6

Hi, friends...

I'd like to say "Happy Thanksgiving" to all of you who celebrate it. It's really good to be thankfull for everything we have in this life. Happiness is not a gift, but we can be happy only if we know how to thank God for what we have.. 

So this is the sketch for the CAS(E) This Sketch challenge

And here's my card

Stamp: Lawn Fawn Pa-Rum-Pa-Pum-Pum, Colouring: Faber castell watercolour, distress ink tea dye

I used the house as the center of the image, and the ginger men as the stripe. This is the fiirst time i learn to use distress ink on the edge, the blending's still not smooth. Hope next time i can do it better.. :)

CAS(E) this Sketch! Challenge #5

Hi, friends..

I just bought Deasy Designs clear stamps, Happy Winter set. This set is really cute! You can combine each stamp to create unique designs..

This is the sketch for CAS(E) this Sketch challenge this week

I used the stamp set to make a Christmas card for this challenge.
Here is my card:

Stamp: Deasy Designs Happy Winter, Penny Black The Wonder (Merry Christmas)

coloured with FaberCastell watercolour & Copic marker

Baker's Twine Moraschino

Somehow i feel that this card still has something less, feel it's just too plain..i don't know what.. I'd be very thankful if you could tell me what is it..

Thank you.. :) :)
