Holiday Creature Feature Extravaganza

WOW, there are soooooooooo many fabulous Creature Feature Creations it was even harder than usual to just pick three, but you know that's out favorite "problem" to have! Since every single card in the Readers' Gallery is outstanding, we're going to get right to our choices because we know you'll want to scroll through and see the rest of them, as well. 

Trina of Phamtastic Design

...raises the bar for stamping, masking and coloring to mind-blowing levels with the adorable (and utterly seamless) indoor scene on her "Meowy CAT-mas" card!

Donna of Keep Calm and Snark On

...made not one, not two, but FOUR colorful Christmas creature cards from the same kit, and all of them are delightful, but obvs the one with the pink reindeer was always gonna be our fave, right?!

Lorraine of Paper Vernissage

...had already met the challenge when she stamped and colored the adorable fishing gnome and his sweet penguin pal; but then she created an entire holiday tree of absolutely awesome silver metallic diecut "Christmas Fishes" too!

Many thanks to everyone who played along, we've always thrilled to see new faces AND old friends in the gallery! We'll be back at Midnight with a brand new prompt that we hope you'll think is a sweet card-making treat!

Holiday Creature Feature

We're still creating with fun creatures, whether they be animals, or other fun creatures like gnomes, yetis or monsters. Here's our holiday creature feature for this week:

Lauren's Other Card

Lauren says, "Lawn Fawn's Car Critters might just be my all time favorite animal-themed stamp set. I mean seriously: Reindeer driving home for the holidays? Hard to beat, right? I've had my original set (which has sweet little bears) and the Holiday Add-On (which has the reindeers) for a couple of years, but I'm still not tired of thinking up little scenes for them. In this case, I've used patterned paper for everything but the deer themselves, which I colored with my Tombow Dual Brush Pens from Paper Anthology."

Stephanie's Other Card

Stephanie says, "You know I'm not going to pass-up the chance to break out a Yeti ... this time a new Winter Yeti Die Cut from Lawn Fawn.  I used the Lawn Fawn Stitched Snowflake Backdrop on the background and paired him with a sentiment from Lawn Fawn Snow Day."

Not a Creature was Stirring

This fortnight at Jingle Belles is a holiday Creature Feature.

We're asking you to break out your animals ... it could be a sweet little sheep or perhaps a reindeer ... okay, or even a monster, gnome or yeti if you're in a bit of a Halloween mood and want to stretch the theme.

Here's how we got CREATURE-y this week.

Stephanie's Card

Stephanie says, "My creatures are the Christmas Cheer Gnomes from Rubbernecker Stamps.  With that mug of coffee, I'm also linking-up at the Gnomes & Coffee Challenge at Caffeinated Christmas."

Lauren's Card

Lauren says, "Here's a funny story: the other week online, I saw what I consider Lawn Fawn's best punny sentiment ever, "Joyeux Narwhal", in their Simply Celebrate Winter Critter Add-On Greeting stamp set. I excitedly made my own version using the Winter Narwhal stamp set and some pink puffy letter stickers, and I was absurdly proud of the result. Then, as I was photographing and uploading (at the last minute, of course) I suddenly realized... I've spelled both words wrong! Ugh. Obviously I'll be doing a bit of remedial sticker-spelling, but I figured I'd post the card anyway and let you share my rueful laughter."
