Wednesday Challenge and Another Preview!

Happy Wednesday! Today's ATS Challenge is a sketch by Amy Rysavy. It's a simple sketch that has lots of possibilities!

The sketch was perfect for this image from the new C.C. Designs set Christmas Around the World. I just love Monkey surrounded by the ornaments! There is another image of a bird on a branch with ornaments. The sentiments say "Merry Christmas" is several languages!

I colored Monkey with Copics, then I added Stickles to his hat and Crystal Effects to the ornaments. I used my Nestabilities to cut the circles. The background was Cuttlebugged with the Snowflakes folder.

Stop by the ATS Blog to see what the Design Team did with this set -- you can also find out how to win it! :) If you want to participate in the challenge, use keyword ATSDTC25 when uploading. The Wednesday Challenge projects can be found in the ATS Gallery HERE -- we'd love to see your creation there, too!

All the new releases will be available Monday, November 10 at All That Scraps! I'll have another preview for you tomorrow! Thanks for the visit today -- have a great day! :)
