Merry Monday #216 - ELVES

Hello Merry Monday fans!  This week Linda is hosting our challenge and she would like to see an Elf or Elves on your Christmas card.


Don't you wish you could decorate sugar cookies just like this?  I can create with paper and stamps, but unfortunately not in the baking department!  Oh well, I did have fun creating my card for this weeks challenge using MFT's Birdie Brown Santa's Elves.

I kept this card pretty simple using MFT's Blueprints 27 dies and partial images from the Santa's Elves set, and my Copics.  (E00, E02, G05, G07, G14, E13, R29 & R39)  Little hard to tell in my photo, but I also stacked and glued 4 die cuts of the frame to give a little dimension to my card.  The sentiment is from the Santa's Elves set too.

Hop on over to the MERRY MONDAY site to see some more inspiration from the rest of the Design Team and then play along with us this week...we can't wait to see what you come up with!

Thanks so much for stopping by today...I love it when you do!  :0)

This is cute. I like how you have different elf parts in the different frames. I could tell that you had your frames stacked up.
