A Christmas Story

I have no idea why this jingle belles challenge was so hard for me - I read so many Christmas books to the boys over the years! But there you have it - choosing something to make a card with just wasn't happening. I found this sticker while digging for inspiration, and although it's just the wording that comes from a story, it's what I got. 


Supplies: sticker & papers from Bo Bunny; rhinestones from Dollarama

Best part? My funky layout came from determination to use those small pieces of paper, so it's all scraps! 

We're in the middle of some super hot & humid weather - I've actually had to wipe sweat from my chin while typing - so I'm going back to being a limp rag now :)

xoxo,
Jessi

    I love it! Great use of scraps and yep, twas the night sounds like the Christmas version of "Twas a dark and story night." It's the way a story starts! Fun funky tree!

    Wonderful Christmas card and I love that you utilized your scraps. Making a card for a winter holiday is always a good idea when it's miserable and hot outside. Hope it cools down soon!
