Day 24, Letter "U" - Beccy's Place 30 Days of Christmas

     I had to do a bit of thinking for the "U" prompt at the 30 Days of Christmas at Beccy's Place.  I thought about all the "Under the tree, mistletoe, starry sky,...etc." but decided to reflect something from the famous Nutcracker Ballet and use Uniform worn by the Nutcracker.  I also made a U-fold card.  You can find a tutorial for them on Beccy's blog.

Here's another photo taken at an angle which will let you see the inside side panels a bit better.

Day 6 at Beccy's 30 Days of Christmas - BINGO Board

     This is the first of the 'thrown curves' from Beccy's Place 30 Days of Christmas and instead of using an alphabet prompt, today she has designed a wonderful Bingo board! 

      I've used both the top row, the center column, and the diagonal from bottom left to top right.

     This cute Beccy's Place image is Finn's Bells and I think he's darling!  This is one of those times when I started with a pre-colored image, then used my ProMarkers to change some of the colors and to add shadows and emphasis to others.  The sentiment is also from this set.

I based this on the sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches, reversed.
