Krafty Chicks Challenge - Christmas

Hello friends.  I'm back again for week 2 of guest designing for the Krafty Chicks Challenge, and this week is all about CHRISTMAS!!


Have you even started your Christmas cards for this year yet??  I make them all year round (can't help it, I just LOVE Christmas!!), so I'm almost ready for this year!  (Then comes the hard part...addressing them all and actually getting them out in the mail on time!!)  Anyway, I have a really cute and simple card to share with you today using a die from Gina K that came out last Christmas.  Take a look...


I used the Gina K Peace, Love, & Joy cover plate die and die cut it twice...once from Night of Navy cs and once from White cardstock.  I layered a piece of Real Red cs behind the blue, and then inlaid the letters from the white piece I had die cut...all except for the "O" in the word JOY.  I kept that space open so I could insert one of the penguins from Gina K's Playful Penguins stamp and die set.


I colored the cheerful little guy with my Copics and then slipped him in the opening for the "O".  I adhered both layers to a top folding white card base and added a piece of red & white bakers twine at the top.  Easy peasy and done!

Lots of great inspiration for you from the DT this week, so check it all out right HERE and then play along!  You'll be so glad you did come December!!  
   

Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!
