Good Morning!
It's Monday and my week just got a lot busier, but hopefully in a good way! The hubs took my cards to work this weekend and sold around 40 of them. One person bought all the Christmas cards I had so far, which weren't many but she cleaned me out! LOL And now several more of his colleagues are requesting Christmas cards. So again, a good problem to have except now I have to get down to creating!
So it's a good thing that yesterday evening I decided to make a card for the Freshly Made Sketches and made it a Christmas card.
I used these fun new nutcracker stamps by Catherine Pooler Designs for the main focal point of my card. These are part of her Christmas Release from earlier this month. I tried to keep the rest of the card pretty simple to showcase these fun guys. I had at first thought I'd add some patterned paper but in the end I liked the pink panel better. So I just die cut it with the same die cut as my background. After embossing the sentiment I decided it needed a little something extra and so I added a little bling on their hats and on the pink panel.
For Following Challenges:

Love these brightly colored nutcrackers taking center stage! Thanks for playing along with us at FMS this week.
Adorable - delightful holiday card!
How wonderful you have such a great place to sell your cards, Nance! Even though I'm kinda freaked out by Nutcrackers these two are pretty cute! Oh man, do I love that background die!
