What a Scruffy little elf!

It's been a loooooong week - thank goodness (and I really mean it this week!) it's Saturday!  And this weekend we are going to get ready for Xmas - the tree is going to go up!!  Anyhoo, I'm here to show off some gorgeous Quixotic Paperie goodies with a funky Christmas card using another one of those wonderful elves from the Make It Crafty Elf Collection...



I used Bazzill Basics Smoothie Kraft cardstock with Echo Park papers and stickers from the Everybody Loves Christmas kit collection.  You can't see it very well (but it looks fab in real life!) but I my Sew Easy Tool with the Cross Piercer Head.  For embellishing I used that gorgeous Memory Box Frosty Border die again.  It's out of stock as I write this, but don't worry Elaine is getting more stock in!  Just email her here and she'll put one by for you (she's nice like that!). 


Okay, well I'm off - enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Gosh, I thought I was way ahead this year but my tree never goes up till after the 10th of Dec, my youngest birthday, even though she is married and doesn't live at home, neighbours would be shocked if it did.
Fab card and great image and papers too.
