What A Cracker!

MIM CHALLENGE #161 WITH KENNY K DOWNLOADS

It's my most favorite time of the week it's MIM TIME!!

This week our sponsor is the amazing Kenny K Downloads

Our sponsor is generously offering our winner 5 Digis of their choice!

I have to say that I own a number of these digis myself, I just love the cheek each character has, they are full of personality and for this weeks challenge I have chosen to play with Elf Boy and Elf Girl







I have made the card in the shape of a Christmas cracker and have coloured the images using Pro Markers, the backing papers are from stock and the little present die cuts are quickutz and I've added a little bit of Sprinkles glitter glue for that extra glamour.

I'm rather chuffed at how this card turned out I think the card compliments the cheeky little Elf's just perfectly.

My lovely DT members have also created some beautiful inspirational work so pop over and take a peek you won't be disappointed and join in our fun linky and you may just be this weeks lucky winner.


My POTW goes to..........


This is a truly elegant card and I just love it! Thank you for sharing Debora xx

There are some amazing and unusual digis in Rick's store especially if like me you like to dabble in the darker side of stamping and enjoy using unusual images.
