It's CHRISTMAS!!!

...in July that is. Guess what??? There's ONLY 148 days til' Christmas!! WHAT??? No way, right? I'm tellin ya, it'll be here in the blink of an eye! Oh and I know it'll be like every other year, I have such high hopes of having all my cards done WAY in advance and mailed out early, presents all bought and wrapped.... so I can sit back, relax and enjoy the holidays! Bwah-ha-ha-ha!! Never happens. I'm ALWAYS late. I'll be late for my own funeral! Pffttt!

So here is Theo again from Stamping Bella's new release.... He's unloaded his bag from Wednesday and is sitting on one of the presents now. Isn't he a cutie?? I stamped him onto some of Bella's Bestest Paper and colored him with my Copics. Then I stamped the sentiment, also from Stamping Bella, with Versamark ink onto some SU Real Red CS and then applied some white embossing powder. It just pops on that red, doesn't it?

I matted the image on the red CS and stitched around the edges. This DP came in a holiday paper pack from K&Co that included all the holidays throughout the year. I LOVED those little lightbulbs with faces! See the one peeking out from behind the ribbon. Tee-hee! I adhered the DP to the SU Real Red cardbase and stitched around the edges and tied on this red polka dot ribbon to finish. Okee dokee, that's it for my little Christmas card, but wait, there's more. Check out all the great Christmas card ideas from the rest of the Bella Babes over at Bloggabella. Not to mention all the fabby cards submitted by the Sistahood too! Christmas EYE candy here I come!!

Now don't forget, the Bella Babes are looking for a new Babe to join our team. Wanna be a BABE and be on a Design Team with da Chicken??? Alls ya gotta do is submit a card for each Bellarific Friday in August and the Babes will pick their most favorite entries each week for a final decision to come after the contest ends. The 1st Bellarific Friday theme is Paper Piecing! Loveee that! Ok, I can't wait to meet my new BESTEST friend! Come on hens, show us whatcha got! Have a FABULOUS Friday!! {{{hen hugs}}}
