Playing Along with the Paper Craft Crew, Paper Players, and SUO

Hello and welcome back! It's been ages since I posted, but I have been busy recently. Three weeks ago, I got a new knee! Rehab has been grueling, so I'm glad to have an outlet for relaxation, but it's been hard to get motivated. This week's challenges at Paper Craft Crew,  Paper Players, and SUO Challenges inspired me to create this evening.


 With Thanksgiving over and Christmas right around the corner, it was time for a holiday card. Here's what I came up with:

The color palette was inspired by the Paper Craft Crew. I created a background paper using that cute moose from Jolly Friends stamped in Crumb Cake. I added a piece of the Candy Cane Lane DSP and a Garden Green banner tied with the red and white Candy Cane Lane bakers twine. The greeting is from Tin of Tags set stamped in Garden Green and cut out with the Stitched Shapes framelits. Pretty quick and easy!

 I'm hoping to get working on my Christmas cards this week, if I survive my physical therapy! :)

 Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!

    This is a fun card, Cindy. I like how you created the moose stamped in the background and then just used a fun piece of DSP for the focal point. Hope your healing continues to go well! Thanks for joining us at the Paper Craft Crew this week!

    Hi Cindi, warm wishes to you as well. The red dsp panel adds just the right amount of contrast on the card base and sure helps the green banner pop. Thanks so much for joining us this week at the Paper Craft Crew. Carolyn xx

    SOOOO cute...love the moose (meece?) in the background and the diagonal layer. So fun! Good luck with the knee recover. I'll be headed down that road next year, I'm afraid. Thanks for playing along with the Holiday Cuteness challenge this time on SUO Challenges!

    Cute, cute, cute! I love this sketch and how you did the background, and how you added the Baker's Twine around the flag. Thanks for playing along with the SUO Challenge.

    Hi Cindi, I love the hand-stamped background with the Moose (he is so adorable). Lovely touches of detail with the DSP and the Stitched Shapes die. Thanks for playing along with the Paper Craft Crew. ~Pam, DT
