Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge 519 - Quick and Easy

 

This week at Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge 519, we are looking for a quick and easy cards. I used a simple SVG from My Scrap Chick, called Penguin Box. I modified the SVG to simply make a back for the penguin and made it into a folded card vs a box. From start to finish this card took less than 15 minutes.

Another year is coming to a close at Crafty Hazelnut's Patterned Paper Challenge. For December's Challenge, I had to make a Christmas Card and say "Merry Christmas" to everyone. I used 4 different patterned papers for this challenge - snow, evening sky, scarf, and nose. The background paper had some beautiful silver stars and a crescent moon, but the metallic paper doesn't photograph well for me. I used my Cricut and an SVG file from My Scrap Chick called. "Snowman's Wonderland." The papers are all from my stash aka Hoard.
