Christmas CraZy



This is card #4 is for a group that Jeanette started on SCS.  Jeanette is the Queen of Christmas and has way more trees and Christmas decorations in her house that I do---and that is quite an accomplishment!  This group is called Christmas CraZy.  This is a bi-monthly "swap" in which we are paired with someone in the group for those two months.  We are to send a kit to our partner--two identical images and two pieces of patterned paper. We can also send a matching sentiment.  That is it--no embellishments like ribbon, brads, buttons, etc., or additional cardstock--just images and two pieces of Christmas patterned paper.  We are to send the kit to our partner during the odd numbered month--like May.  We then make and post our card on the even month!  Then, next round, we are paired with another person and get to do it all again.

For July and August, we are to send a full kit to our partner.  We send images and patterned paper, but also include embellishments and ribbons or fibers.  This time, I was matched with Imke and received a great kit all the way from Germany. I hope that Imke and the others like my card! 

I think the Whiff of Joy image is too cute.  I added some Wink of Stella clear glitter on the star, the tree and on the shoes to give it a bit of Christmas Sparkle!
