You've been ELF'd!

 Hi friends!

Happy weekend!

Today's fun cards are a 3-fer

for an Instragram hop with a theme of holidays.

I'm celebrating the wonderful JOY of the Elf on the Shelf!

Our EOTS was a huge staple of the holiday fun

for our kids during the holidays.

Ours is a mischevious elf who likes to do hilarious stunts + poses!

                               

                                This was a fun card to make!

I paired it with candy cane paper 

since in the movie Buddy the Elf references the 4 food groups:

candy, candy corn, candy canes and syrup!

Here are the cards together

and I'll share the others on a seperate post :)

These 3 will go to our 3 youngest children 

as our oldest daughter got a different card.

This is a fun group on Instagram but is my last month.

It's been a fun journey but 2024 is going to be 

a busy crafty one for me!

So I need to focus on the tasks as hand, as they say :)

Thanks for stopping by!

The Elf on the Shelf! :)

 Hi friends! 

 Happy December!

                We are almost in 2021, friends! Can you believe it?!                           In a blink, it will be Christmas but FIRST ........

                      I have to get through 3 December birthdays!                        Out of my 4 kids, 3 have a birthday this month .. 

Yes, the craziest month on the planet but we make it memorable!

 Today's card is in honor of our crazy cute Elf on the Shelf 

that returns every year!  

Our granddaughter, Alice, who turned 2 recently, has her own Elf

so the magic begins anew!

I used the Elfs and Their Shelf stamps and dies from Neat and Tangled.

Oh how I wanted this set!

I wasn't near the internet when it was retired and when I heard about 

the sale, it was gone gone GONE!

I waited and waited and searched and searched through sales

and finally through an ISO on Facebook, another crafter sent it my way!

I was OVER THE MOON!

Love love love it :)

I concentrated on using just a couple of colors,

mainly green and red with a pop of a darker green.

I used a stencil ever so lightly for the background

and just popped them all up on foam tape for dimension.

The inside reads:  I elfing love you!

Thanks for stopping by!

Big hugs, bigger blessings :)
