Hello everyone! It’s time for a new sketch challenge at CAS Colours & Sketches and I have a fun Christmas card to share with you today, with a happy little elf! 😍

Here’s the fun sketch that Cecile chose for us this week:

And here’s my “Happy Elf” Christmas card!

When I saw the non-geometrical shape on the sketch, I knew immediately that I wanted to make something fun with it. And what’s better fun than the adorable elf from Tim Holtz’s Santa’s Helper die set?? 😍 Once I decided to use that happy elf, the rest of the design was super quick.

I added the red stripes using one of the Simple Patterns Trio stencils from Simon Says Stamp, added the elf, trimmed his hat… and added a simple Merry Christmas sentiment:

This card was so easy to make, I’m totally in love with that happy elf, and definitely going to make more Christmas cards with it soon! 🙂

Thank you so much for stopping by today! 🙂 For updates about new posts, please follow me on Instagram and Pinterest.
