Elf Work

This card made me smile.  

I had the DSP all picked out before actually stamping

the images.  So after stamping the calendar and matting it, 

then the Elf, coloring, cutting and matting that. It was 

an issue with placement.  It seemed a bit busy.  

So I fussed with it, I tried just using the red card stock,

and the white, but I really liked the candy cane DSP.

Then the most amazing thing happened, when I flipped

the card over, the two pieces fell into place the way you 

see them.  It was like a little elf just placed them there

for me to see, and it turned out so nicely.  

The amount of times I had to double check to 

make sure the calendar days lined up to this 

year was bit embarrassing and I'm still not 

100% sure it is right.  Even though I got out my

phone calendar.  

I will submit this card to the challenge at:

Christmas Kickstart Challenge

The stamp sets featured in this card are:

Stampin Up:  #Elfie, Days to Remember 

The picture below is my little oops, because I was not paying attention.

  I stamped it the wrong way.  Sigh.  Such a pity because the 

sentiment  stamped on the  first try so nice and straight,

that should have been my first clue something wasn't right.

Any ways, it was a quick easy fix. 

Below is a picture of my little buddy.  

I love the way he rests his little chops on 

his sweet paws when he's resting.  

The verse I chose for this card is:

1 Peter 4:10 KJV

As every man hath received the gift, 

even so minister the same one to another,

 as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

Keep Smiling and Keep Stamping
