Craftin' Away

For more Christmas card inspiration, I stumbled upon the Cardabilities Challenge site and loved this week's sketch!  I used it to make a few cards for family members.  I also thought it'd be fun to add one of our nutcrackers into the picture to make it a little more holiday themed.

This card also fits into the color challenge over at Just Us Girls.  The color challenge this week was to make a card using red, olive & white/kraft which was easy because I've been making Christmas cards all day!

    Pretty. I've never seen that border before, how'd you do it? Cool nutcracker. He looks so fancy back there! Perfectly Christmas-y.

    thanks :) the border is a pre-cut border that I bought at RAH - it was a package of different borders.
