The Holidays In Pink

I didn't think I could do my three weekly challenges this week. With my office's Christmas lunch coming up and making 17 mini cakes plus working on my daughter's teacher's treat boxes (19 of those!) for Christmas, I am running on full steam. I took a look at the three challenges and was glad I could incorporate all of them into one entry.

Below are the three challenges for the week:

1) Penny Black Saturday Challenge - Christmas For The Girls. Recently there was a challenge to make something for the guys. The DT didn't want to leave out the girls! :)

2) Copic Colour Challenge - Below are the colors to use:



3) La-La Land Crafts Wednesday Challenge - Buttons, Buttons, Buttons! Include at least one button in your entry.

Below is my entry:



The bright pink cardstock is from Bazzil from their "Bling" collection. The soft pink cardstock was from a store I visit often called Paper Source. The designer paper is from Basic Grey's Eskimo Kisses collection. The corners were made using my Cuttlebug die-cut with stick-on pearls from my stash. The sentiment was made with my Cricut machine, using the "Joys of the Season" cartridge. The button flowers are from Sassafras. The PB critter is from The Wonder collection, colored with the following Copic colors:

Copic Challenge colors (YG03, YR04, RV06), RV13, Y38, YR23, R35, R37, RV32, E00 and the colorless blender. I also added some sparkle with my At You Spica pens red pink and orange.

I cut the PB critter with my Nestabilities petite oval and petite oval scallop shapes. I paper pierced the scallop.

As soon as I finish the mock of one of my daughter's teacher's treat boxes, I will post it. :)

Thanks for stopping by!

Hugs,
