Christmas Elf and June calendar

I can hardly believe it's June already, how'd that happen!!  We've had a rubbish week of weather so it was lovely to get a dry day and get out to tackle some of the weeds!

So what else would I be making to celebrate the first day of summer but a Christmas card LOL.  I've been eyeballing these MFT elves for such a long time, so a wee sale was a good excuse for a purchase ;)
Coloured with polychromos and popped up on foam pads; gloss and glitter added to his hat; Paper Smooches snowflake dies.

And this is Mum's calendar page for the month, actually on time for a change! I bought this little girl for my niece's birthday card last year but I don't think I've used it since.

Ugh, we are about to get nasty weather here. Not looking forward to that! Your elf card is just so sweet! And your calendars always make me happy! Great job, Lynne! Hope you are well!

That elf is a cute little dickens, isn't he? I can see why you'd been coveting him. Hope to see him on lots more Christmas cards. Your June calendar page is adorable. I think your mum will enjoy seeing that little girl each day this month. She's a cutie, too!

I love the way you've used that adorable little image of the soccer playing girl for your Mum's June calendar page, Lynne. The colouring is wonderful. I love the details of the sponged clouds and the grass. Beautifully done. Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
