Little Elf Finn

Hello fellow crafters! For today I have a Christmas card starring the playful Little Elf Finn from Mo's Digital Pencil. I am sharing this card on Mo's Dream Team blog as I do every Saturday GMT time or Fridays here in the US. There is new inspiration twice a day every day of the week over there, so go have a look if you haven't already.
I have used My Mind's Eye Lost and Found Christmas. It is such a versatile Christmas paper pad. My last card (here) using this paper has such a different look.
I have Wild Orchid Flowers lightly coated with gesso and a Martha Stewart pine punch. The music sheet is from the paper as is the tag I made. On the tag I have some mini jingle bell and seam binding which I have added Red Brick DI to. The sentiment is wrapped around a miniature spool (so cute!). Some stitching, cheesecloth, Frantage and a doily round out the embellies.

I chose to use Devastasia. I have had her printed for some time as I really wanted to color her but never was the right occasion. Her boots aren't technically pumps but they are pump-like. 

I used Prima's Moulin Rouge papers and Wild Orchid Craft flowers. I used a pearl flourish from Michael's and cheesecloth under the flowers for texture.

Stop by the Kenny K blog to see what the other DT members created for this fun challenge and join in the fun!!

Bubble Heart

I am happy to be back to share a card using Mo Manning's Bubble Heart! The image is so adorable I knew I had to color it up for a card for my husband.

I wish the picture came out a little better because the colors are more vibrant in person.

I used Pink Paislee's London Market and cut the butterfly out from one of the papers. The frame is made using a Martha Stewart mold and the stamp is a Prima stamp from the Printery collection. I destressed the edges of the paper and stitched and faux stitched some.
