Welcome to our Create with Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges. This week’s inspiration is a darling little elf! I don’t remember having an elf stamp lately, so this has been fun!

FESTIVE FRIENDS
You already know I love the snowman (just finished my Christmas cards using him!), but the Santa and Elf and super cute, too!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Real Red cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Old Olive cardstock was added on top.
- Two 3/4 x 5-1/4 strips of Traditions of Christmas Designer Paper were added to each side.
- The tag was cut from Basic White cardstock and colored with Light Crumb Cake across the bottom for the “ground” and stamped the greeting across the top with Memento Black Ink.
- The elf was stamped on scrap Basic White cardstock and colored with Old Olive, Real Red, Ivory & Bronze Stampin’ Blends. Cut with the Dies and add to the tag with Stampin’ Dimensionals and then to the front with more Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Cut two 1 x 1 pieces of Traditions of Christmas DSP from the plaid paper.
- Cut two Starbursts from Real Red cardstock, add to the top of the packages with Monoadhesive glue, then add next to the elf with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Add two small Real Red & White Peppermints to the center of the bows.

TOO cute!! OK, check out Debbie’s Inspiration Monday card over on Create with Stamping Friends!
