Delightful Challenges

Good Morning!  Happy Thursday!  I hope you and your kidlets enjoyed Halloween, if that's what you do.  It was a low key evening for me and my kids.  They weren't interested in going to downtown Sanford for the Halloween festivities there, so we had a good dinner at home and just did our thing.

The newest challenge is up at Delightful Challenges and this week we're playing with a fabulous sketch.  We're also showcasing some fabulous new designs.  I'm using Peeking Ginger Baby.  When Wendy sent me this image I squealed in delight and my heart melted!

Here's the sketch....

And here is my interpretation of it.  I saw the sketch and thought of a gatefold card.  I am so happy with the results.  I hope you are, too.

So don't you agree, is that little ginger baby too stinkin' cute or what?!  Look at that face!  And the sentiment  speaks volumes on how I feel about her.  And here's the inside view...

How I created this card:  I started with a piece of Old Olive card stock 5 x 11.  Then on my Scor-Pal, I scored at 3 inches and 8 inches.  Then I took my oval cutters from Creative Memories and cut the rounded edges, I think about 1/4 to 1/2 inch off.  No precise measurements.  Then I ran the ends thru my Cuttlebug with the candy stripes embossing folder.  My finished piece is a 5 inch square card.

So since it's a square card, I created a matching envelope using my Scor-Pal and Scor-Envy.  Now I have a sweet little Christmas card set.

Now head on over to the Delightful Challenge blog to see all the rest of the holiday inspiration by the rest of the team.  Enjoy!
