MiC Christmas Elf Socks

Hi everyone!

I actually got to make something for fun last night :)  Make it Crafty has a new Christmas release and all the digis are just a complete must-have.  There are some cute elves, cheeky elves, elegant angels, gingerbread men and a house.  I just couldn't want to play with them!

The first one I chose to color up and create something with was Socks, although it was a tough choice since they're all adorable.  I thought I would try something different so I have him hanging off of a circle outline die cut.  The sentiment is from the Whimsy Stamps Winter Letter Seals set.  The quote inside remains to be one of my favorite winter-related quotes ever :) I also used some MiC Chipboard which were generously treated with Golden Rod Stickles (love how they turned out - looks much better in real life!)

The papers I used are from the GORGEOUS Echo Park - Season's Greetings 6x6 Paper Pad, which Shop Pumpkin Spice has for only $4.19!  I actually used up a whole paper pad already!  I printed out 6 of the new elves and separated the papers out for each image so that I can (try) to match the paper colors.  So yep, I used up a whole pad and you'll be seeing A LOT of this paper :)

All edges were distressed with Distress Inks in Vintage Photo.

Stamps: Make it Crafty Socks, Whimsy Stamps Winter Letter Seals; Coloring medium: Copics on X-Press It Blending Card; Papers: Echo Park - Season's Greetings 6x6 Paper Pad; Embellishments: MiC Chipboard; Tools: MS border punch, Spellbinders dies, Cheery Lynn doily die, Inkssentials ink blending tool
