The Christmas Kickstart Challenge #107 - Reminder

 

Welcome back to the February Challenge where we are in the very talented company of  Carol Mayne from Just Me: c. 

 

Carol has chosen a fun theme and I'm amazed at how many different ways you guys have found thus far to interpret a festive sing-along. 

The Christmas Kickstart Challenge #107

 - A Christmas Sing-Along!

Being a kindly elf, Carol has made a second card for our challenge, and she has chosen one of the most (in my opinion) beautiful Christmas carols for her theme. Isn't this a beauty! You can find all the details of how Carol made her stunning card by heading here. 

Here's a reminder of her first card for our challenge together. 

I just fell in card-love when I saw this 'pop up' as I opened Carol's email. The colours and that design - just perfect! I loved the bold background too, and hunted through my background stamps for something with a similar feel. 

You can find all the details of how I made my card over on my blog. And you can find all the details about Carol's card on her blog here - please head over and leave her some love.

Let's say 'Hi' to once again our favourite reindeer with his cute February Random Raffle Prize. 

Rudolph respectfully requests that you please take a peek at the Challenge Guidelines before linking-up. 

Carol and I can't wait to see what you guys come up with for this fun challenge!

Let's Trim the Tree for Challenge #106

Hi there, it's time to Trim the Tree for Challenge # 106 where we were joined by Chris Lawlor as our elfin guest.

 Thanks so much, Chris, it's been a real treat partnering with you for January.

Chris picked a very popular theme for our first challenge of the year as we played Dreaming of a PINK Christmas. This one really seems to have hit the spot with you all as we had 40 cards in the gallery, which is a bit of a record for January. A big thank you to everyone who joined us - your cards were all gorgeous and very, very pink. 

As always, just choosing a few cards to showcase proved tricky, but here are some of the cards that rocked our festive socks this month.

Our Top Picks for this challenge are:

#13 - Linda W.

We both love all the details on this beautiful card. 

Just look at how Linda created that gorgeous layered sentiment and the bear's cute outfit.

#20 - Loll

Just look at that dainty little snow globe scene. So pretty, and such lovely colours too.

#27 - Heather 

So many pretty papers and shades of pink here. Lovely!

Our Winner and Star on the Tree for this week is:

#37 - Greta

There's something just so lovely about Greta's pink angel card. 

Congratulations to you all, I hope you'll enjoy flaunting your blog badges for all the world to see!

Finally, here's Rudolph! And by the way, Rudolph is very grateful for your kind comments about his photo-shoot makeover. 

 

 

Our Winner of Rudolph's Random Raffle for January is 

#9 - Linby... It's you!

Congratulations, Linby, please email me a dottypudding (at) aol.com with your snail mail address so I can connect you with your prize. 

Thanks once again to our fabulous elf, Chris, and to everyone who joined us in January.

Challenge #107 is already open and we have a new elf to inspire us, so why not come and join the fun!
