Krista has generously provided the DT with some of her gorgeous images for our cards this week. I have chosen to work with Molly the Elf. This sweet girl holding her Christmas list she reminded me of the song Grown Up Christmas list which is all about wishing for things like peace, love and joy for Christmas.
I knew right away that I wanted this to be a bright fun card so I have coloured the image to match these wonderful papers from MME which can be found at Simon Say Stamp here. The layout for my card was based on this week's sketch from Sketch Saturday. I have added only one embellishment this week, a gorgeous rosette flower that I made using my new Tim Holtz die, this thing is amazing and makes it so easy.
I have even finished the inside, I am trying hard to get into the habit of this when I know what the card will be used for. It sure beats having to go through and add all the inserts right before I have to put them in the mail.
I hope that you have been inspired to join us. Be sure to visit the rest of the DT over on the challenge blog to see all of their gorgeous creations.
Happy Crafting!
