All I want for Christmas...

 

Isn't Tofu and The Snowman from Purple Onion Designs just adorable! I thought this image would pair perfectly with a sentiment from Mama Elephant. 

You have to be quick to play at Rudolph Days Challenge as there's such a brief window of opportunity during which to enter. I was ready and waiting to create my card for Challenge #3. Congratulations to Helen (who is currently my guest/elf at Christmas Kickstart) for relaunching this fun challenge. 

I'm delighted to join the fun at ABC Christmas Challenge playing H is for Hats.

 

Finally, I'm also playing at Christmas Craft Creations where the theme for this month is non-traditional colours... I'm hoping Red and Teal are non-traditional enough for the team. 

I hope you're all having a good weekend!

Ho, ho, ho!

 Here I am with yet another Christmas card! I told you I was on a roll. 

Today, I'm playing along with ABC Christmas Challenge where the themes are: 'C is for Cats' & 'D is for Dogs'.

I really do love the little critters from Jane's Doodles set O Christmas Tree and decided to pair it with Darkroom Door's Word Block Stamp Christmas, which I masked to create a square background. I added some lovely snowflakes using a stencil that's missing it's packaging. 

I'm also playing again at Christmas Craft Creations where the theme is:

 Little Red Wagon, where it's all about Stencil Power for Challenge #745

And there's just one more day to squeeze in my card at Helen's Rudolph Days February Challenge.

I hope you're all having a happy day wherever you are! 

I Saw a Mouse...

 Hey, just look at me posting for the second day in a row! I'm really enjoying my crafting at the moment and seem to be unusually productive. Long may it continue!

A while back I bagged this little Stampin' Up! mouse, and his equally cute buddies, from a Facebook sale site. Isn't he adorable? 

He was great fun to colour, although I didn't mean to stamp him in brown ink. I decided to stick with the brown and I have to say that I think it works with the kraft background. 

I stenciled with white Distress Ink through a TH/Stampers Anonymous Merry Christmas Layering Stencil and then added a sentiment from another bargain buy, which I think is from Hero Arts. 

I'm delighted to linking-up at a few challenges, having created my card using inspiration from:

Steph and Lauren are Getting TEXT-y With It for their current challenge.

The lovely crew at Christmas Craft Creations are looking for Stencils and Embossing Folders.

Edited to Add:

Thanks so much!

It's all about Christmas at Addicted to Stamps and More.

Just Us Girls are having an Anything Goes Stencil Week.

And finally, I'm tickled pink to see that the lovely Helen from Made by Helen has reopened The Rudolph Days Challenge! Congratulations, Helen, I hope this goes well for you. It's great to have a later in the month challenge with which to play along.

Time for a cuppa now. I hope you're all having a happy day and possibly even managing to squeeeeeeze in some crafty fun!
