Last Call

Here it is: December!  Now the Christmas card rush is on.  Unless you have been playing along with us all year long at Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra where it is Anything Goes (as long as it is Christmas related) all month long.  Today begins our last challenge of the year and here is my card using one of the adorable images from Bugaboo Stamps, our sponsor for the month:
I've said it many time before this is my favorite Bugaboo image and since it was already printed out and sitting on my desk, I just had to color him up.  Since it was such a small size and I've had snow globes on the brain lately, it was a perfect match.  I even managed to use up some scraps: the white circle for the main panel and the snowflake.  I have a HUGE bits and pieces pile and I am going to have to work on using it up in the coming year.  I started this year, but the last couple months I've been adding to it instead of using it up.

Challenges:
Sugar Pea Designs #11--winter wishes
Crafty Ribbons #107--Christmas Animals
Lacy Sunshine--North Pole
Cuttlebug Mania--There's Snow place like home (use a snowflake and a sentiment)
Creative Inspirations #291--Season's Greetings
Paper Pretties #338--Snow Much Fun
Crafty Catz--anything goes
Fussy & Fancy #128--Happy Holidays
Sentimental Sundays #235--Lots of Layers
Christmas Challenge #53--anything goes
Raisin Boat #29--Christmas/Holidays

Supplies:
Stamps: Bugaboo Stamps "Plush Reindeer" digi; Verve "Ornamental Christmas" sentiment; Your Next Stamp "Holiday Snow Globe"
Dies: PTI "Fancy Flakes" and the negative (main focal circle) from "Shaker Shapes: Snow Globe"; Spellbinders classic scalloped circles, large; Verve "Flag it" small banner
