Just Call Me

Hello.  Welcome.  I am all a jingle today.  The lovely Dotty Jo asked me to guest elf at the Christmas Kickstart Challenge, so just call me Twinkletoes Bunnyslippers­­.  Here's my new hat.

A few years ago I decided to make christmas cards all year round, a few each month, so I would have a good stash by the time the crazy season arrived.  I play along with a few all year christmas blogs and was delighted when Jo started the Christmas Kickstart Challenge.  It's two weekly, so plenty time to make a make, and it's a really fun place to be.   This fortnight the theme is Moves On Hooves and we are delighted to be being sponsored by Rubber Dance Stamps.  So you get to grow your christmas card stash and have a chance to grow your christmas stamp stash as well!!  Win Win!!!!  Here's my inspiration.


I know!!  It's that colour scheme again!!!  I must admit that Mr Mojo wasn't playing the game and so we borrowed a card from my One Sheet Wonder Not pile and added a Sizzix Dress Up die cut Reindeer.  I never did get the matching clothes die, but it wasn't so difficult to rustle up a snowflake patterned paper ugly sweater.  I'm a resourceful elf you know.  I added some colour with distress inks and a red sharpie for his nose.  The diamond die cut is Simon Says Stamp Diamond Parade and the merry christmas is black stickers.  


Hop on over to the Christmas Kickstart Challenge and link up your christmas makes featuring hoofed things for more fun than a flambeed christmas pudding.  

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

Super cute Rudolph card and it's not a really ugly sweater although I'm tired of snowflakes. Love this new challenge blog. Love Jo too. I too play along with several Christmas challenges. Congrats on being a jingle.
