Today, as the Guest Elf for January - I have a reminder post for the Christmas Kickstart January Challenge - Baubles.
I used another die from Festive Ornaments from Sizzix for my baubles card - Santa's belted belly! (See my 1st post for the challenge using the plum pudding dies in the set here)
I added a silver cord to hang it and layered it over a beautiful piece of pine branch DP. Santa's belt is black glitter card but the sparkle doesn't show in the photo. I popped up the bauble with foam dots and taped the top of the silver cord on the back of the DP. Inside I stamped "Here Comes Santa Claus"!
So lets start building our new stash of Christmas cards so we're not in a rush come December!
You have until Jan 31 to link up your 'Bauble' cards over at Christmas Kickstart!
Thank you to Jo for inviting me to be Guest Elf for January - I'm happy to be starting my Christmas card stash for this year!

Another gorgeous creation, Julia! This is just so much fun and I love the little 'ho,ho,ho' too. So happy to have you as my elf this month - thanks so much, Jo x
Such a fun card, Julia. Love the pop of the pop of red and gold against that pretty paper background.
