Favourite Holiday Treat

Did you have as much stamina reading my recent posts, as I had making all these cards?! :-) I honestly cannot believe that I am really posting the last, 7th card of the Bugaboo challenge! Phew! That was some hard work! TGIF tomorrow! :D

So what's my favourite holiday treat? Honestly, there's loads... Gingerbread cookies in dark chocolate, I think... But surely, there's so much more! Anyhow, for the purpose of the challenge, I decided to go for Sugar Cookies with Sprinkles ("Make your card a shape other than Square or Rectangle, 3 pieces of Bling & Ribbon"), mostly because I got really tired of all these square cards!

And I have to say, I am rather pleased that I went for this recipe - the card looks much cuter in reality than in the below photos, and I am actually considering keeping it :-) And I know just the way to do it... It will be the card for my Hubby! :D He likes green and "simple" - this is pretty much as simple as I can go most of the time, so it should fit the requirements!

Hope you like it, too!

 Can it stand? YES it can! :-)

I would also like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Inky Impressions - Christmas ornaments

The images used (both the Christmas Tree and the sentiment) are leftovers from my previous project - the little gift box. You can find the whole digi here, in case you would like to get one for yourself. 

YAY! I MADE IT! Thank you so much, Bugaboo Team, for this fab challenge!

Cozy Up By The Fire

Good evening,

So, I am alive (barely, after all these late hours of crafting), and back! And I have more cards for the Bugaboo Holiday CHAOS Celebration challenge! 

When I saw this challenge, I have to be very honest - I completely ignored the "recipes", and instinctively just went for my VERY favourite way of unwinding over Christmas - FUZZY BLANKET AND A FIRE!!! Ya, I would probably add all of the other ways also, but this is most definitely my first choice! What's under this category, so? "Use texture and at least 3 layers". Not a problem at all - I love layers... Here we go:

I would also like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Scrapki-Wyzwaniowo: Strips

The red ribbon has such a gorgeous deep colour. Not really captured in these photos, I'm afraid, but you'll have to believe me. Or just hop down to the other posts - I am using it a lot recently! ;-)

So that's card number 5. Two to go...

Anything Goes for CHRISTMAS

OK, so here we go with the final card for tonight... Hopefully 3 more to come tomorrow! Fingers crossed! :-)

This was originally going to be the card for challenge number 3, but since I missed the bit about using the image with the mouse, I am using it for the last challenge, number 7 -  "anything goes". It' s a bit too cool of a card to use it "just" for anything goes, in my opinion, but since it doesn't really meet any other criteria (unless I really pushed it, which I don't want to do) - it will have to do. 

I think it's one of my favourite creations this Christmas - it just makes me laugh every time I poke the Santa and make him bounce! He bounces thanks to the little "wobbler/spring" - you can see a bit of it in the close-up photo. I have also taken a quick video with my mobile, to show you the fun - hopefully it won't be uploading for ages! I just thought that the video would showcase the card much better than the photos... Am I right? :-)

I would also like to enter this card into the following competitions:

Passion for ProMarkers: Mega Christmas Challenge
Inky Chicks: Christmas

And don't you just love the sentiment? LOL

Time to go to sleep!
