MFP Speedy the Cat's Friends Challenge - Holiday Card

This week at Mark's Finest Papers Speedy the Cat's Friends challenge we are to make a holiday card.  This is a sneak peek of Musical Holiday a new set that will be released next week.  We had over 200 challenge entries last week and 5 winners of a new not yet released stamp set!  So go create a holiday card and link it directly to Inlinkz on the Mark's Finest papers blog.
I stamped the french horn with Versamark and embossed it with gold embossing powder.  I cut it out and matted the image with my Nestabilities.  I used the SCS sketch challenge from this week - SC304. 
Thanks for coming by!
Supplies: Stamps - Mark's Finest Papers - Musical Holiday; Paper - Mark's Finest Papers; Ink - Versamark; Misc - Nestabilities, Cuttlebug Embossing Folder, Gold half pearls, Foam Squares
