I bought some cute, new Elf digis at the weekend, just as the printer decided to cough and splutter.
Some nice Kodak doctor is sending me a new head for it though - so after a transplant, it may yet survive.
I did need to make a start on my Christmas cards though.
It is only 61 days til Santa. Eek!!
I stamped and paper pieced my Me To You bear, adding some colouring and shading on the DP.
This card is best viewed from about 10 paces back - then you don't notice all my mistakes!!
You're searching for them now, aren't you? :-)
Challenges.
I followed the sketch at Christmas Challenges. I did move my image to the side though (don't worry girls, just delete me if this isn't ok). There is also an added twist this week, to use flags/banners. I put my sentiment on a little die cut banner.

Cupcake Craft - Pieced Off!
St. Luke's Charity - Simple Christmas
Supplies.
Stamp - Me Tou You, Winter Wonderland, coloured with Copics.
