So who wants to be cute for Christmas?

We do over at The Cutie Pies!

Hello blogworld

As you may have guessed we've got a new challenge for you at the Cuties and we'd like to see your cutest Christmas creations going!  You've also got extra time to enter the challenge as this one is going to run over Christmas and into the New Year - 10th December to 6th January to be precise!  But don't run away from the blog - check back at Christmas and you will find a lovely Cutie Pie extra Christmas present.

This challenge we have Di's Digis sponsoring us :

with the prize being a $10 voucher for the lucky winner.

So this is the image that I coloured for another project and had to abandon - still I don't mind as it actually turned out really well - I think! - in the end.

Here you go, see what you think.

Front shot:

I used:

Stamp:
Kanban - Betsie Bob magic of Christmas (had to have this stamp when I saw it, it's Emily to a T!)
coloured with my Promarkers

Dies:
Memory Box - Snowflake

Papers:
Now there's a thing - they are all scraps and bits of really ancient papers and I've no idea whose they are.

Anything else?
Wild Orchid Crafts and Prima Flowers
Blingy things from the candy I won from Lisa
Heart doily was a birthday present
Seam binding and bobbly trim from my stuff
Viva Decor Pearl Pen
MDF present embellishment

It's a big card this one - 8x8!  Dictated by the size of the stamp, I hadn't realised when I brought the set just how big it is!!  Still doesn't matter, it's for SHMbO and she'll appreciate that it's a big card!

Hope to see you over at the Cuties!

Cheerio
Sarah
