Christmas Creature Congrats!

We always love seeing the creative creatures that come visit us at Jingle Belles ... here are a few of our favorites from our Creature Feature.

AJ

from 

AJ's Creative Energy

shared an adorable (and perfectly colored) Christmas Platypus ... isn't he a cutie.

Irene

from

Irene's Scrapbook

created this adorable holiday reindeer (with twine & a tiny jingle bell around his neck) to adorn her fabulous cutlery pockets ... wouldn't these make your holiday table festive!

Sybrina K

from

There's Always the Other Side

made this adorable trip of penguins using an *owl* paper punch ... how clever is that ... and don't they just make you smile.

Anni

from

 Annikarten

used both markers and pencils to bring this row of little creatures to life ... and she added a Santa Hat to each one for the perfect finishing touch.

Make sure you come back tomorrow for our next holiday prompt ... so you can use November wisely to stock your holiday card stash ... and take back December, one holiday card at a time.

Creature Feature

We love all of the fun you're having with Christmas Creatures ... here are a few more that we made.

Stephanie's Other Card

Stephanie says, "For me, Christmas isn't Christmas without a Yeti or two ... my sister and I always exchange a variety of Yeti fun over the holidays, so this card will likely find its way to her.  Stamps are Lawn Fawn Yeti Set Go (colored with Spectrum Noir Markers) and sketch is Mojo Monday."

Lauren's Other Card

Lauren says, "I fell in love with these beautiful felt cardinal stickers, but then I was a bit puzzled as to how I would use such tiny elements on a card... UNTIL... I saw this week's Retro Sketch which gave me the perfect plan!"

Remember, you have until 6pm (EST) on Wednesday November 5th to link-up your Christmas Creature Creation.

Not a CREATURE was stirring ...

Yes, sometimes we love prompts so much, we revisit them each year ... like this one.  

We wait all year for October not just because of the money we raise/donate to fight breast cancer (thanks again to everyone), but also because October is the month that celebrates creatures, costumes and characters.

This prompt is to create a holiday card that features a *creature*. Your creature might be a mouse, a moose, a bird, a robot, elves, reindeer, snow-people ... or yes, even a Monsta. Just have fun with it ... you know we did.

Stephanie's Card

Stephanie says, "I love mail-themed images, so I could not resist featuring this super-cute digital puppy from Mulberry Wood. I added a stamped sentiment using this week's Mojo Monday Sketch."

Lauren's Card

Lauren says, "Ok, so, here's a shocking true confession for you: a biiiiiiiiiig part of the reason we do a "Creature Feature" at Halloween each year is so that I can make a Christmas Monsta card (or two!) fair and square. What can I say? I'm a woman of simple pleasures, and these cards make me inordinately happy! I used Sweet Sunday Sketch #241 because it totally rocks, and a pink robot bunny monsta dude cut from my ancient Paperchase giftwrap because I still can't believe how totally AWESOME you guys made this year's PINK XMAS celebration! Thank you!" ♥♥♥

So now it's time to see how *YOU* will feature a creature! Link up here before 6pm (EST) Wednesday, November 5th; Keyword for galleries and Flickr is JB:14:22.
