Happy June! I can't believe it is here already! Since it is a new month, it is time for another challenge from Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra. As always, we are a month-long, Anything (Christmas-related) Goes challenge and our Sponsor is Bugaboo Stamps.
Here is my card using the adorable "Mary and Child" image:
I love it when I get to make a Christmas card that celebrates the true meaning of Christmas, and this image is really so cute! I hope you will get a chance to play along with us this month. It is time to get working on your Christmas card stash if you haven't already!I had created the strip of patterned paper stripes down the side a while ago when I was working hard to use up some of my scraps. Adhering them like that really gives a fun touch! It adds a pop (or pops) of color without having to have a strip of paper actually large enough to fit the space.
Supplies:
Stamps: Bugaboo Stamps "Mary and Child" digi stamp; Verve "Peace on Earth" sentiment
Dies/embossing folders: Spellbinders "Classic Circles, large"; Darice Woodgrain embossing folder
