Jingle Belles Catching Up

As I've mentioned before I recently got a full time position working at an elementary school and on top of going to school "full time" i.e. 4 classes, I've been feeling a little stretched. However the kids have off this week for Easter so now is my chance to get ahead on some school work, relax a little with the family, and even get some crafting done. So here I am with three cards to catch up on the Jingle Belles challenges.

First up the Jingle Belles Batman Smells challenge. This was actually the last card I made and the only what that I really like from today. It was clear that my mojo needed some time to kick in.

This next card is for the current challenge, Christmas cards to DIE for. I kept it really simple using a precut die cut, a rub-on sentiment, and a touch of bling.

This last card is for the Ghost of Christmas Present challenge I tried to use up some fun stickers I had. I love how stickers look in the package but they don't always end up as cute as I hoped. But hey its a fast card that is flat for mailing.

  8. Congrats on catching up! You did a great job on all three cards! It's hard to choose a fav, so I won't!! I must comment on the die cut one, though, since that is our challenge.... great clean and simple design! I am becoming a great fan of C & S, as well as non-traditional colors, and you really nailed it with this beauty! This would be one that is easy to make lots of and WOW everyone! Thanks for sharing with us at BettyBee's Buzz! Please come play in the hive often!! (There are several HoneyBee teachers :o)
