Celebrate the Season - C4C # 63

It's Crazy 4 Challenges time! This month Cindy Haffner is our host and for today, she's challenging us to make a Christmas card or project. I dunno about you, but this time of the year, that's not really a challenge--that's all I *want* to make ;)


I'm using this recently released Emma Celebrates the Season from MFT for my card. She was stamped on a Perfect Paper Panel with Memento Rich Cocoa ink and colored with Copic markers, and her scarf was paper pieced. I added some Liquid Applique to her hat, muff (I had one just like this!) and boot tops. I used MFTs Snowflake Trio Die-namics dies for the snowflakes and tied on a little button from the Spring collection for the center. Other MFT products I used are Sweet Tooth and Gumdrop Green card stock.


Here's the inside--I used the fabulous Open Scallop border Die-namics die for this and stamped a sentiment from the set. Sweet!



Sooooo, NOW, be sure to check out the samples by the rest of my crazy girls...er, I mean the Crazy 4 Challenges team ;-)

THEN, you know what to do--we'd love to have you come along and play with us. Just do your thing with the challenge and link it to Mr. Linky on the Crazy 4 Challenges blog. Please link directly to your project. And, if you upload to a public gallery, please use the key word C4C63.

Thanks so much for dropping in today!
