Merry Monday #216 {Use an Elf}

Happy Monday! This week at Merry Monday Christmas Challenge, Linda is our challenge hostess and she's looking for a card with an ELF on it - I knew *exactly* which stamp set I was digging out:


This cutie is from a set from The Alley Way Stamps - I was so sad when they closed their doors, but I will thoroughly enjoy what sets I do have :) Here is a close up of my elf, his toys and the sentiment that I cut apart and popped up with foam tape:


I am entering my card into the following challenges:

Addicted to Stamps - Favorite Embellishments (pearls)

Crafty Friends - Special Occasions 

Come on over to see what the rest of the Merry Makers have created for you - soooo many adorable cards with elves - you won't want to miss them! Link up your project as well so we can leave you some love! Cheers!

  6. This card is so dang cute Lori! And you'll laugh when I tell you I thought you had goofed on the sentiment thinking it should have said "Joyful" instead of "Toyful"...then I got it and laughed myself silly! Beautiful coloring and I absolutely love the big nose on your elf and his facial expression...cute, cute card! Hope you're having a great week!! :0)
