Stamping 411 Sketch Challenge 229

I am really gearing up my Christmas Card making now. Every challenge is going to be Christmas. I can hardly believe next week is Thanksgiving so times a tickin'. This is the season for the paper crafter. We live for the holidays because we send so many cards at this time of year. I used to make one design of card but now I have a tendency to make a variety of them. It's fun and there are so many possibilities.
This card features Mrs. Claus. She is very easy to make and I dressed her up with her red pearl earrings, sending a cheery sentiment from the stamp set Seasonal Sentiments. If you are interested in how to Mrs. Claus see below.  
Thanks for stopping by At Paula's Place.
Supplies:
Stamps: Seasonal Sentiments
Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Blushing Bride, Early Espresso markers
Paper: Cherry Cobbler, Whisper white, Very Vanilla, Old Olive, Jolly Holiday dsp
Tools: 1 3/4", 1 3/8", 3/4" circle punches, scallop circle punch, Scallop border punch, ticket corner punch, basic pearls
Update on Mrs. Claus. Here is the link to the youtube video on how to make her from create with De. Thanks to De for such good instructions
