A Vibrant Christmas

Good Morning, today marks the start of another ABC Christmas Challenge. Before I tell you all about it, I want to thank you all for joining us for our Up to You challenge. I think it was a record, we had nearly 500 entries and we really enjoyed seeing all your beautiful Christmas cards and creations, so inspiring.

Our challenge this week is being hosted by Miria and she has chosen the theme

For my card, I have chosen to work with some of the brightest, most vibrant reds and greens in my stash. These great papers are from MME and I have coloured this sweet elf from Kraftin' Kimmie to match.  For the layout I have followed a wonderful sketch from the Sketch Challenges blog and as the papers are so bold I have opted to keep it simple and just added a simple sentiment to finish it off.

 

I do hope that you will join us again this time around.

Happy Crafting and I hope you will visit again soon.
