I am glad that I am feeling "ready" with Christmas cards this month (thanks to so many Christmas challenges), because as Thanksgiving is over, I haven't even begun to take down fall decor, let alone get out the Christmas stuff!
But I am still having fun doing some Christmas cardmaking. Here is a really really clean and simple card I made for some challenges.
Sometimes it is fun to just use a really small image. I used colored pencils on this tiny dollar bin stocking. I layered up some die cuts to create a fun little focal point.
Supplies: Stamp is unknown but is a dollar bin acrylic stamp, Elle Studio Cheers sentiment stamp set, Versafine Onyx Black ink, Derwent Coloursoft colored pencils, Darice embossing folder, Cheery Lynn designs Inverted Scalloped circle die, Spellbinders circle dies, Avery Elle Wonky Stitches for the sentiment banner, Distress ink Twisted Citron, Queen and Co Goosebumps gems.
I would LOVE to participate in the following challenges:
Power Poppy Think Pink
November Rudolph Days
A Blog Named Hero Holiday Challenge

So sweet, love that bit of pink peeking out about the edges.
This is a pretty card Heidi and I love the background embossing and the pretty stocking, great green gems too. Thank you for joining in with the November Rudolph Days Challenge. x
What a cute card. Perfect for mass production.
My Thanksgiving stuff is still up too, but I refuse to decorate until the first weekend in December! This week is the calm before the storm! Super cute card, you made that dollar store stocking look like a million bucks!
Everything must be so busy in the US this time of year, with Halloween / Thanksgiving and then Christmas, I couldn't even begin to contemplate it all.... Love your sweet Christmas design and I'm so glad that you now feel on Christmas track!
This is such a sweet card. I forget to use my dollar bin acrylic stamps and I must make an effort to remember in 2017...as they are always so fun and sweet.
Yours is so pretty and I like you design!
Hands are healing (slowly) so hope to get back into a blogging and visiting routine.
Fabulous card and such a great CAS design with that super stocking stamp and embossed background. Thanks for joining in with the Rudolph Days challenge xx

Pretty Christmas card! (Using my favorite color! PINK!)
Oh, I LOVE these pretty non-traditional Christmas colours Heidi! Such a cute design! Thank you for continuing to pop by my blog and leaving your sweet comments, it means a lot to me, especially now, when my blogging and visits are so sporadic! I'm hoping Mum will be strong enough for me to ease off a little next year and I can get back to blogging proper again! Have a lovely weekend! Hazel xx
Popping by again with my challenge hat on...
Thanks for taking part in the November Rudolph Days Challenge.
