A different holiday card

I'm jumping away from Easter real quick to play in the CAS Christmas Card Challenge. This month is is add an Elf to your card.  It's hard to make that switch right in the middle of making Easter cards but I wanted to get this in. I used a stamp and cut elf from Hero Arts. He is one of three in the set. I embossed a Christmas tree with a Cuttlebug folder inked with Forest Moss Distress Oxide to make the tree look flocked. The elf is colored with Copics and popped up. I used a black gel pen on him and added a few gems to the tree and his hat. The sentiment is Rubber Stampede.





Be kind to one another.
