Naughty or Nice?
It's a very happy Saturday here in our house. We're celebrating a big Wisconsin Badger football victory and a possible spot in the Rose Bowl on January 1. I was lucky enough to attend the Rose Bowl in 1994 and cheer the Badgers on to victory in a mostly Badger fan-filled stadium--what a surreal, fabulous, and memorable event! I may have to pull out one of Cosmo the crazy dog's Badger bandannas for Chloe the cutie puppy to wear in honor of the big win. Unlike him, she's not a big fan of the bandanna and I'm not sure I'll be able to change that. She even chews on her own dog tags, so I can only imagine how hard she'll be on a bandanna . . .

Anyway, here's a festive card for this week's Paper Craft Planet sketch challenge featuring another of the new releases from Starving Artistamps. This image is from the new Juniper and Jupiter collection and is called Juniper Elf. The elf is colored with Copic markers. I used the out of the box technique on the image panel so Juniper's legs are extending beneath the bottom of the panel.
I found some dotted paper to use for the bottom panel. I purposely selected a pale color with a simple pattern so I could stamp the "naughty or nice?" sentiment on the paper. I ran a strip of red ribbon underneath the sentiment and wrapped some red and white baker's twine around the ribbon a few times. After knotting the ribbon, I added a small gold bell as a fun accent for this week's Just Us Girls challenge to add a 3D holiday embellishment to your card.
