Papertake Weekly - Take Your Pick!

Good Morning!
We have a new challenge starting at PAPERTAKE WEEKLY today of Take Your Pick! Whenever we have these challenges we give you an option of 4 different themes to play along with. 
The selections this time are to use a Sketch, the colours Blue & Green (either/or), 
a Technique of making / including a Tag and to use a variation of the Product Lace! 
I have opted for the Sketch and Product options.
As soon as I saw the new Wild Rose Studio release I knew I had to snap a couple of the stamps up, this design is such a cutie and I also treated myself to the one of Santa & Rudolph, Christmas has come early to the Craft Room!
