The Christmas Kickstart Challenge #108 - Out of the Woods

Happy March, everyone!

Our guest Elf this month over at The Christmas Kickstart Challenge is the rather wonderful Wendy from Cartai. 

Wendy has chosen a super-fun theme for us...

Challenge #108 - Out of the Woods

And she's created the sweetest card for our challenge together, and you can see it here. 

Here's what I made. I think my woodland creatures might just be 'forest' creatures! 

The majestic stag comes from Sizzix Thinlets set by Josh Griffiths called Forest Animals. His friend the bear is from the same set.

I added a Memory Box window to frame that nosey bear. 

The gorgeous Rudolph is with us over on the Kickstart blog to share his March Random Raffle Prize.

Anyone else miss Sugar Pead Designs? Such cute stamps.

Wendy and I both hope you'll come and play along with our challenge!

Let's Squash It! Challenge #16 - Inspiration post

 

It's the 17th of the month and therefore time to offer a little more inspiration for Challenge #16 - Under the Sea.

For my card I used my newest piece of equipment - this gorgeous embossing folder! Isn't it a beauty? It's by a company I've not bought from before and the depth of the embossing is fabulous. The fish are from a favourite Birdie Brown set from MFT.

We've not had many takers as yet for this challenge so I hope this card helps give you a little creative nudge and encourages you to come and join the fun!

I'm linking-up this card over at Lost Coast Design as it's one I'm planning to give to my hubby. LCD are currently playing with masculine cards as their theme.

Happy crafting!
