Host Mary Gunn FUNN had Libby Hickson (@stampinlibby) as her guest. Like many, Libby got her start in card making with Stampin' Up. I got to know her years ago via the Hero Arts group; she worked there at the time. Now she works for Pink & Main. The wheel spun some fun parameters for us:

• Project - Envelope: I created a card using an envelope die.
• Colors - Toys: I used Pick-up-Sticks colors - black, red & blue (plus white as neutral).
• Element - Children's story: I found an All I Want for Christmas story featuring penguins.
• Random - List(s): I used a die cut and stamps to create a scroll list.

I relied on some stuff from the bits box that was already prepared (penguin left over from my March 21st post & a Be Merry sentiment). All the rest I did during the show. First I die cut two envelopes and scored the back one near the top, then glued together. There's a slit in them so I glued a white panel over it on the insides, leaving the one on the front's inside open to having the list be able to slide in.

Next I die cut the scroll list and stamped on it with items from the Stamp & Cut set, plus the "Peace, Love & Joy" from a Cathy Zielske Stamptember set. Added some blue Copic for shading on the scroll and then the check marks using a fineliner. Slid it into the front slot. Added the penguin and sentiment with foam tape - done! Here's a standing view:

That's it for tonight. I'll add my card to Merry Little Christmas #61 where Anything Christmas Goes. Thanks for visiting and have a crafty weekend!
