Ssshhh not the C word...

Yes, I'm sorry but this is a 'Christmas in July' post!

I usually leave all my Christmas card making to the last minute and come up with an easily replicated design but this year I'm feeling more organised...that or I'm just bored of the usual Birthday cards! And having had a good clear out of the entire craft stash I have rediscovered the 'Christmas stash' boxes and folders so I'm having a play.

So here is one of my Christmas cards made using Clearly Besotted's Little Elves stamp set and their Tag Along die collection (which is really brilliant).  

So I simply stamped and coloured the elf before fussy cutting and layering onto the tag cut from two colours of green card and little red square in the middle. I used some festive looking ribbon to attached to the tag and then mounted it on an A6 kraft card blank with foam pads for dimension.

As I have recently discovered a (fairly new) Christmas card challenge I will be entering this into their July challenge which calls for Christmas Characters. Be sure to visit the Christmas Craft Creations blogspot here.

Right, I'm off to put the children to bed and read some craft magazines as I have a bit of a backlog to get through!!

Thanks for visiting,
