Happy 1st of March! I can't believe two months of the year are gone already!! If you haven't gotten started on those Christmas cards, yet, now is the time! To help you along, you can play with our Anything Goes (Christmas related, of course) challenge from Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra. It lasts for the whole month and you can enter as many times as you want. Our awesome sponsor is Bugaboo Stamps:
I wasn't feeling like using any of the Christmas images I have and since I won this image a couple months ago and hadn't gotten to use it yet, I decided to dress this sassy lady up in her Christmas finery. I used a white gel pen to add little white polka dots to her scarf! Love it!!
I think this is supposed to be a fall image, as she is wearing a scar, but I think it works perfectly for winter/Christmas as well. The bit of patterned paper was a scrap and I die cut the border from a scrap of red card stock. It just makes me happy when I can use up some of those scraps AND create a fabulous card. I hope you get a chance to play along with us this month; I can't wait to see those Christmas creations.
