Bizzy Bec's Blog Challenge

 As usual our August Blog Challenge is "Anything Goes".

This month I have made another Christmas card for my collection.  One of my Facebook friends, Lisa coloured a Santa with a blue suit and I really liked it for a change.  I decided to have a go, live on the edge so to speak.  The Bizzy Bec's digi I used is "Little Santa with Rudolph".

Morgan's ArtWorld Blog Challenge #8


 Our August Blog Challenge is as always "Anything Goes".  This month I am working with "Teddy 4".  I chose to make a square gatefold card using this image because I had the perfect designer paper to show it off with.  The designer paper is Kaisercraft Teddy Bears Picnic.
