Checking the List

      We all know that Santa has a long list of good and bad children and that he checks it continuously from August right through until Christmas Eve.  I decided to celebrate his faithful endeavors in that arena by putting together a Country Christmas card for the newest challenge at FarmQuest Country Christmas.  We always have an "Anything Country Christmas Goes" theme so you have to imagine Santa pacing around in the snow in front of the toy shop which he checks that all important list!

     The image came from QKR Stampede and it's called "Checking it Twice."  That seemed a perfect phrase for the sentiment so I used it.  The image is colored with Sanjoki alcohol markers, cut with a QuicKutz die, and inked on the edges.  The two papers for the background came from a Recollections stack which has been in my stash for at least 5 years!  I think it has a nice country (and Christmas) feel to it.

     I printed the sentiment and cut it with an Avery Elle die.  Nice simple Christmas card; one more for the holiday stash.


     Challenges:

     I hope you'll come and play with us this challenge.  Create something that has a Country Christmas feel to it and enter it into the challenge.  We look forward to seeing what you create.  Happy Crafting.  NanaConnie
