Bells Are Ringing

Bells are ringing, children singing, all is merry and bright.  All except my mind that is.  Trying to do too many things at once is causing a glitch in my thinking cap.  Actually it's making too making cards at once that is the problem.  Cards for challenges and cards to send.  Did I post that one?  Or didn't I?
I'll have two posts today so the cards I have already made can make the deadlines.

First up is Freshly Made
 
and my take on it.
 

When I saw the circle in the sketch I immediately thought of the jingle bell.  It is cut from CM 'Tis the Season from silver paper (which doesn't show up well in the picture).  The loopy border is cut from MS Elegant and the sentiment is stamped with a stamp from My Craft Spot.  All the parts are inked with Walnut Distress Ink.

How lucky for me that this week's challenge at Fantabulous Cricut is Bells are Ringing.  I can enter this into their challenge, too.

Great sketch project! I am terrible at those so I just admire when I see a crafter nail it like you did! Love your paper choice and the twine accent! Thank you for joining us over at FCCB!
