Monday is here. Are you ready for another great week?  Have you been making one Christmas card a day to get ahead of the rush.  I think it is only 316 days until Christmas so you have 300 days.  If you make two-three a week, you will be finished early.  Use a simple stamp set that you know will be returning next Christmas season.

My design inspiration for today is the TGIF Sketch Challenge for the week.

Since all my little creatures are fussy cut from DSP I believe it would qualify for Crafty Hazelnuts Pattern Paper Challenge.

Since my card is lots of animals, I believe I am eligible for the Crafty Animals: Challenge #47.

And 2 Crafty Critter Crazies Challenge.

My cute critters are from the Playful Pets Designer Series Paper as is the background panel with all the writing.  My card is a CASE of Krista Cleary-Yagci’s card.  You can see her card here.

The card base for my critters is Real Red card stock.   The black and white stripe mat you see is from the True Love DSP.  The red stripe is from the Playful Pets DSP.

All the little critters are fussy cut from the Playful Pets DSP as are the hearts that surround them.  The Love is cropped from Real Red card stock using a dies from the Well Written Dies.

The sentiment panel has a strip of the Playful Pals DSP applied at the bottom of the Basic White card stock panel.  One of the little critters wants to play with us so she is hiding and only showing her tail.

The medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of the Playful Pets DSP adhered to the envelope flap.  Multipurpose glue and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals are the two adhesives used for adhering the critters to their places on the card front.

Thank you for stopping by today.  I hope you will join me on my stamping journey as I share my cards with you each day.  My hope and wish are that you will be inspired to create amazing creations yourself.  Any questions you may have, you know you can always contact me.  Have a blessed day!
