SnC - CCC Day 14 and a new challenge blog!

Hello again - this is my last post for tonight!

Today's prompt for the Christmas card challenge is Santa!  Since I didn't want to cut the same Santa as yesterday's card, I looked through my cartridges and found a Santa on Joys of the Season.  Santa was a bit on the big side so I put together a simple card that really showcases him.

I used Authentique Festive papers and added a little Trendy Twine bow to finish off the card.

Did you hear about the new die cut challenge blog, Cut It Up?  You can check it out HERE.  They are giving away a really cool prize if you help them promote their new blog.  There's also a DT call going on now too!  You can check out all the info HERE and they also have a facebook page HERE.

Thanks for visiting!

SnC CCC ~ Day 13

Hi!

Yesterday's prompt for the Christmas card challenge was paper piecing...so I took a big step and dusted off my Cricut to tackle the challenge!

I cut this cute Santa from the Doodlecharms cartridge at approx. 3 inches tall.  I "dressed" him up a bit using my D'vine Swirls Cuttlebug folder on his beard and I added some fun flock to his hat.

I just love how this turned out!

I used the current sketch challenge at Seems a Little Sketchy for my card layout~

TFL!

Have a Fairy Happy Birthday!
