Crafty Elves' Countdown to Christmas / May 2025

Where does the time go ?!?!?! 2025 is almost halfway over and it's time for the May Crafty Elf cards !! I  shopped a fabulous sale over at Deep Red Rubber and got the cutest holiday stamp that combines my love of Christmas AND coffee . In fact, I bought several for friends and will also be sending one to someone who comments on this post . I will choose someone at random in the evening on Tuesday, June 27 . Are you feeling lucky ??

I chose the Noel Elf  image for my card this month.  That elf is just the sweetest and I envisioned him taking a nap in one of my many holiday coffee cups after helping Santa deliver presents ALL night long ..

 

• The Noel Elf  image was stamped twice - once on white cardstock and once on cream. I used Memento Tuxedo Black ink .
• I fussy-cut the cup from the white cardstock.
• The stamped images were colored with my OLO markers.
• The elf on cream cardstock was die-cut with a 
• I adhered a piece of Stampin' Up "Sleigh Bells Ribbon" to a piece of DCWV  Joyeux Noel paper .
• The ribboned panel was adhered to a green card base.
• I placed small light and dark green pearls across the top of the fussy-cut cup.
• That cup was then adhered on top of the same image on the cream panel with foam tabs.
• The completed stamped panel was then placed on the card base with foam tabs.
