Candy Canes and Polka Dots

It's the first Merry Monday in December.

If you've been playing with us all year,

you should be ready to send out those Christmas cards.

 

This week Kreative Kristie chose our challenge.

And the talented Shirley B. is our Guest Designer this week.

I used my favorite candy cane stamp that came from a

Michael's Dollar Bin.

I stamped with red ink on  a snippet of Whisper White, 

then with black on a snippet of polka dot paper.

I fussy cut the bow and pieced on the canes.

Crystal Effects made the candy shiny and 

Wink of Stella gave some shimmer to the bow.

Another polka dot piece behind and a fun sentiment

and I was done.

I'm taking my snippets over to

Pixies Snippet Playground

where Di can't run after us this week. 

I'm sure there will be lots of mischief  fun happening there.

Hope to see your "sweet" cards over at

Merry Monday!

Thanks for stopping by and for all your comments.

I'm sorry I haven't been by to visit  you lately.

  

I hope to have more time to visit this week.

Enjoy!
