Let's Trim the Tree for Challenge #42

Tree Trimming is upon us for Challenge #42! This was such a fun challenge as Christmas Kickstart partnered up with Let's Squash It! for a double helping of festive frolics.

Our elf was the lovely Gail and our theme was to use a Christmas Embossing Folder and a Stamp. We had a fabulous number of entries (#59 in total) and while the party wrapped up here at CKC on Monday 25th, things continue at Let's Squash It! until tonight at midnight.

Our Top Picks here at Christmas Kickstart are:

Greta

Just love all the red and white.

Betty

We love how Betty used the embossing folder on her gorgeous stepped card.

Bonnie

Such a beautiful effect with the double snowflake design.

Topping the Tree for this challenge is:

Suze

We both love this beautiful stag against the swirly, snowy embossing folder background.

Congratulations to you all, please grab your badges to impress your friends and family!
