Christmas Card Challenges Week #4

Sunday, December 23, 2012

Sorry that I've been MIA at the blog. Of course you know how it is, right?  Lots of things going on in December.  Couple that with a complete lack of energy on my part and that equals not much time or energy to create. 

I do have a card for this week's challenge at Christmas Card Challenges.  This week, our optional challenge, in addition to making a holiday or Christmas card, is Jingle Bells.

I looked long and hard at my stash of goodies and almost didn't find anything to use that fit this criteria.  Then in the end, I stumbled across my Tiny Treats: Christmas stamp set and this cute little image came to the rescue.  My sentiment is on the inside of the card because I couldn't decide on a good place on the front.
***Supplies***
Supplies not listed:  Cream satin pleated ribbon from The Ribbon Carousel
I am taking some vacation time so I'm off work until after the New Year.  Woohoo! Of course, I've got lots of grand plans in my head.  We will see how much actually gets done.  Friends, I hope you have a very merry Christmas!

Alanna, that spattering of bells is just perfectly tied up with that white ribbon. :) I hope you and your family have a blessed Christmas and healthy 2013! :)

What a great bell image. You've stamped it so crisply and clearly! And the texture of the ribbon is great. I hope you either make a great dent in your hoped for to do list, or scratch it altogether and just enjoy your break!

Merry Christmas to you and your family!
