Christmas Card Club Challenge #25 - Cute

Hi Crafters,

Well we've reached the end of this years Christmas Card Club Challenges, what a fabulous year we've had and plenty of Christmas inspiration for you all.
Thankfully I have now finished all my Christmas cards and orders so I can sit back and relax a little but if you still have some more to make why not pop round to the ladies blogs and see what they have made, links are HERE.

Now on to today's challenge theme which was set by Sylvie.

She'd like to see all your CUTE Christmas creations.



I thought both of these images were adorable.
Lots of fussy cutting and layers with minimal embellishments to allow the image to stand out.

Challenges I'd like to enter:

to be added

Well that's all from me, we will be taking a break from our Christmas crafting until January 6th 2019. Then we will be back in full force to start all over again for another fun year of Christmas cards!

Passion For Promarkers Mega Christmas Challenge - Hip To Be Square

Hi Crafters,

Well it's time to introduce our Mega Christmas Challenge here at Passion For Promarkers.
Both Design Teams will be inspiring you with their Christmas makes in a SQUARE format over the next few weeks.
This week it is the turn of Team 2 to share their creations and here's mine...


Using my all time favourite Penny Black stamp called Snowy I have coloured him with my trusty Promarkers in shades of brown for his hat and scarf and grey's for his snowy bits :o)
A dash of glitter on his hat completes the image and then some subtle embossing for the background together with various sizes of snowflake die cuts from a Cheery Lynn die. The sentiment is a wooden embellishment which just happened to be the same colour as my glitter card, how lucky was that?
