Christmas card club - gnomes, pixies or elves!

Good Morning! How are you? I do hope you are well and happy! I am good - my youngest daughter is over at a friends birthday party - it was a sleepover party and I need to pick her up soon. My eldest daughter had one of her friends over last night too. Looks like its just me who's billy no mates!!! Only joking - me and the cat are doing just fine!!!

Its the first of our fortnightly Christmas card Club posts today - the theme was gnomes, pixies or elves - well that posed quite a few problems for me so in the end I decided to use the Lisa Horton gnome again from Thursdays card ... here's what I came up with.


All of the background stamps are from chocolate baroque, the sentiment from Clarity. I am looking forward to seeing what my buddies came up with - I only made the one as I really wasn't overly impressed with my design!!!!

Hope you have a great Sunday - the girls are both back to school tomorrow and I start my final week of work! I have enjoyed it - and will be looking out for another job!

Big hugs

Rachel xx

    I love his long legs! I can visualise him running speedily through the forest you have created. Lovely little card. Kids always seem to have a better social life than you ... lol. Mind you, even my 95 year old mother in law had a better social life than us! Hugs Christine xx

    A great combination of stamps in this fun scene for your little gnome Rachel, I'm loving the font on that sentiment too, very quirky.

    I think it is a very fun card, with lots of color & whimsy too. Love this funky looking elf and the forest of trees for him to hide in. It looks vintage too, with the subtle color shades. Well done. TFS & Hugs
