For Day 2 of my birthday Sketchtember Challenge, I’ve created a cute Christmas card with the Sweetest Candy bundle.

Using the large check mask from the Artistic Mix masks I blended Mint Macaron on Basic White Cardstock. Then I moved the mask a little bit and added Garden Green which created a cute dual tone check pattern. On top of this, I stamped some leaves in Mint Macaron before die cutting the Stitched Rectangle.
I used another one of the masks to apply Versamark to add the Gilded Leafing. By using a mask it gives a more natural look without harsh edges to the Leafing.
