It's not too early to be thinking about making your Christmas cards! I've been experimenting with ideas and designs for my Christmas cards this year. I usually have to try a few different ones before I decide which design I want to go with. I like this one because it is cute and simple. It reminds me of the night before christmas.
I used the layout from Pixie Cottage. The background paper is new, from the 50% off paper sale at hobby Lobby. I like this paper because you don't have to use a separate sentiment with it. The image is from Stamping Dragon Designs. If you havent yet, check out their store! They have some of the cutest images you can buy! The ribbon is from my stash, as are the 3 skittles in the top right corner of the image. (I dyed those skittles myself).
I am entering this card in the following challenges:
Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells at Catch The Bug
Challenge #33 3D at Bee Crafty
Challenge #19 Xmas In July at Magical Crafts
