Good morning everyone and welcome to another Creative Belli Challenge!!!
This week's challenge is to use Christmas embellies on your projects.
We are soooo fortunate to be sponsored again this week by Creative Cuts and More!!!
I used their adorable Christmas Sleigh die cut in a beautiful navy blue called Huckleberry Pie. I drew the center section on the side, colored it in with Milled Lavender Ranger Distress Crackle Paint, and drew around the edges with a gold Zig pen. After the paint dried and had that cool cracked look, the foliage image from Peaceful Wishes was stamped on the painted area with Old Olive. The Kaiser Wood Flourish from Stamper's Dream was colored with an Old Olive color wash and the bling was added over the berries. Ribbon and Taylor's Tiny Twinkles bling finish it off.
Be sure to visit the Creative Belli Design Team Member's blogs to read more details about their designs. You will find lots of awesome ideas!!! If you upload a card to Splitcoast or PCP, be sure to add CBC78 in the keywords section.

This is also for da Mudder's Teapot Tuesday Challenge hosted by Charlene (LilLuvsStampin). It seems poor little Dusty Bear was left in an attic for years, all alone. He was sooo sad and lonely....all tattered, torn, and really hungry!! I am on my way to Detroit (gotta make a detour to Michigan to pick up Charlene aka Bertie) with Florence Bear to the rescue....she has a bowl of da Mudder's chicken soup which will cure almost anything. Charlene is also hosting the DDC challenge this week...her challenge to us is to join in Mothermark's Teapot Tuesday Challenge. Soooo, gather all your bears, food, clothes, and sewing kits and join us in helping little Dusty Bear!! Be sure to add DDC to the keywords section of you upload so we can find you cards!!

I made this Christmas card for the Ways to Use It Challenge on Splitcoast last Thursday. Julia challenged us to use stickers on our designs. I just received the beautiful SEI Winter Song stickers and papers which go perfectly with the Rubbernecker tree images from the Snowflakes and Stardust set. This is a 3 part tree image with 2 squiggly tree images and the stardust which was embossed with silver ep. The snowflake stickers and ribbon finish it off.
