Elf in a Pickup!

Hey crafty friends - hope your week is off to a great start! I'm popping in with another Christmas card for the stash using new Pink & Main products.

Supplies: Paper - Paper Studio Assorted Cardstock;

TH Kraft Metallic; Betterpress Porcelain;

Neenah Solar White

Dies - Pink & Main Truck Pop Up &

Deer and Elf Peeker Dies;

Memory Box Pine Wreath (retired);

Hero Arts Presents Tower;

Spellbinders St Nick (trees)

Stamps - Pink & Main License Sayings

Press Plate with die - Spellbinders Merry & Bright Sentiment Strips

Other - Copic Markers

Loads of die cutting and assembly just for the pickup. Then I decided to add the elf with some pines, a couple of trees and a stack of presents, so more die cutting! The presents were colored with Copics. A sentiment strip for the elf to hold came from a Betterpress set. The license plate is part of the pickup set; I stamped it with a sentiment from the coordinating set (sold separately). Time consuming but well worth the effort! Isn't that elf just the cutest?!

Here are a couple more views - folded flat and from top while standing. 

Because of the tall present stack, my card won't fit into a standard envelope (even A9)! I plan to put in an A7 and leave it unsealed - will tape the flap to a gift....

I'm sending my card to Merry Little Christmas Challenge #64 where Anything Goes (entry #3 of a possible 8). And since my pickup and elf are newly used, I'll also add my card to Darnell's October NBUS Challenge #79.

That's all for now. Thanks for stopping by & have a crafty day!!
