Anyway, I've been meaning for ages to get a move on with my Christmas cards. This one uses this happy chap from Eat Cake Graphics stamp:
1202-J Christmas is coming (elf with newspaper)
Coloured with watercolour pencils and popped up on dimensionals. Clear gloss and glitter added to the snowflakes and to his hat. Paper Smooches snowflakes dies. Silver peel off sentiment from stash.
- Layout based on Kimberly's beautiful card over at Muse Christmas Visions #47
- Simon Says Stamp Monday - monochrome
- CASology #200 - CAS
- Classic Design Team Open June - anything goes
- Sparkles Christmas Challenge #65 - use 2 dies
- CraftyHazelnut's Christmas extra - June
My second card uses an old Tiddly Inks stamp - coloured with watercolour pencils and popped up on dimensionals. I added some Spectrum Noir clear sparkle to her dress and shoes, and clear gloss to the balloons.
- My general layout was inspired by Leigh's card over at the Muse Challenge #168 - I don't think I've ever framed an image like this before, but love how it turned out
- Tiddly Inks #183 - Happy Birthday
- Bunny Zoe's challenge May - lots of layers
- CASual Fridays #149 - florals
- Crafty Catz #327 - add a butterfly
- Simply Create Too #110 - red, white and blue

Ah, two of my favourite challenges! lol! Love your 'golden' take on Kimberly's layout and the fun of the flower background for Muse! So glad you joined us this week, Lynne!
Ooooh this is A-mazing!!! The border is scrumptiously golden and the elf so FUN and with the colors you used, so elevated to an elegantly fun card!!! Thanks soooo much for joining us at MUSE Christmas Visions💚
What a great Christmas Card you have created. Love the side border dies, they are just perfect with this fabulous image which you have coloured beautifully. Nice work.
Thank you for sharing with us here today at Classic Design Team Open Challenge and best of luck with your entry.

Your Christmas card is awesome! I think you should make lots of these - you could do them in different colors (for borders and elf outfit). Your birthday card is so sweet, too. Love those Tiddly Inks images. Your coloring of her hair is amazing.
Fabulous cards, love your style of cards.

Two adorable cards, Lynne! I love the elf and the DP is so pretty. Your colouring is gorgeous. I think we had all the sunshine yesterday but today we have the cloudy weather instead, Jo x
These are brilliant Lynne. Both layouts are fantastic xx
Fab card! The design is really nice. Thanks for joining us at Tiddly Inks.
Great take on Kimberly's cardinal card! Love that little elf! :-)
Two super cute cards. Adorable elf. Thanks so much for playing along with our 200th challenge at CASology.
Both of your cards are so sweet Lynn. Thank you so much for sharing with us at CASology for our 200th challenge!
Wow! Way to get going on Christmas cards already! That alone is very inspiring and makes me want to get into "holly jolly mode" myself. And I was so impressed at how your elf card is so full of life and energy. It is monochrome, but it's wonderfully whimsical and sophisticated at the same time. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful piece with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!
Gorgeous and beautiful card Lynne thank you for joining us over on
