Crazy 4 Challenges #63

At C4C this week, our challenge is to make a Christmas card/project. So I made this gift card/money holder that can be hung on a tree:






Here is a closeup of this cute Christmas puppy digi image that I got from Whimsy:



Oh she is too cute!! This is another Christmas digi image designed by Chrissy Armstrong for Whimsy Stamps. Please visit the Whimsy store to see more digis and stamps created by Ms. Chrissy Armstrong. I cut out my ornament using my Cricut machine. Added a border punch around the circle. My papers are from My Mind's Eye (love it!). I colored Santa's puppy with copics and added white Scribble paint to the brim and pom pom of the puppy's hat then added some MS white glitter for extra sparkle.

I will enter this card at the following challenges:

Fuzzy Wuzzy Challenge - winter card with furry friend
Just Add Ink - christmas
Cute Card Thursday - anything goes
A Spoonful of Sugar - holiday card

I hope you like my project today. Please leave a comment if you would, I love reading them. Have a great weekend!

Hi Angela,

what a sweet Christmas hanger, the border around the ball gives it that extra touch. Love the puppy, actually I love everyting you color ;-) How is your puppy doing?
Also a nice when you can put a little extra in the pocket behind.
