Max' Christmas!

Thank you for your visit today!
Today I want to show you my very first Christmas card. Some people already know my dog Max, a charming retriever, one of my favorite drawings . Well, here's Max, in a forest, giving gifts to his friends. I used the Sketch of Friday Sketchers, which seemed to me very useful, because it allows many combination. I put a beautiful Christmas ribbon and added many, many stitches I made in my sewing machine. I will also enter this card on other Challenges.
