Mojo Christmas

I wanted to make sure I got a Christmas card made this week (yep I am still trying to keep it up BUT finding it harder to do!) so I had decided today was the day with the Mojo Sketch, then I saw the Mojo Monday 81 sketch & wondered how the heck I was going to make my Christmas card!!

The image is called Triple Decker Present from Stamping Bella. The Christmas DS paper is from My Minds Eye, and I coloured the presents with the colours from the paper. I like these colours because they aren't too Christmasy - you can only have so many traditional looking cards right?!
The ribbon on the presents is paper pieced and I added some stickles to the little dots and the polka dots.

The sentiment is from Stamping Bella; it's a line sentiment so I masked and stamped it to fit into a circle punch then mounted it on a nesties circle. The cotton candy bonbons are also from Stamping Bella

It's fantastic weather here; certainly starting to see the snow finally melt so it was nice to make a Christmas card with my craft room window open!!

Thanks for stopping by -
