Happy Monday, peeps! I have a fun little Christmas card today, it uses the Peace on Earth Challenge photo prompt as well as the 52 Christmas Card Throwdown sketch:
My friend Michele made a fun little card for this challenge and that prompted me to remember that I have an older SU set called Crab & Company, and it had some beachy Christmas items in it, so I went to work! I used the background of the upper left photo as a sort of starting point:
I used a strip die, cutting several different shades of red to make the background, then stamped, colored and fussy-cut my little Santa clam:
The sentiment was stamped on a Basic White strip of cardstock, and then I added a matching sentiment from Jingle All The Way on the inside:
Cute and fun! Thanks, Michele, for the inspiration!
A few more birthday cards:
This sweet card is from my talented friend Teri:
And Shawn always knows how to make a card that makes me laugh!
And Fran must know that I love peach....love these colors and that big flower!
Thanks so much, ladies! Enjoy your day and be blessed!
