Elf Teddy Thank You Cards

I used my Cricut Teddy Bear Parade cartridge that I just got to make these fun Teddy elf thank you cards.
 
 
I also used the Elegant Edges for the oblong frame. This cartridge is so useful! I am in love with my Teddy Bear cartridge and can't wait to make a zillion bears. I had so much fun decorating him. I added the jingle bell from Joann's to his hat and little white buttons to his trousers. The sparkly candy cane is a sticker from Jolee's Boutique. The paper are from a DCWV stack and I hand cut the tag and added a snowflake brad. I used foam squares to pop him up along with the sentiment and my Cuttlebug to add snow texture.

 I decorated the inside by cutting another frame from Elegant Edges and inking it all up. So now I have a batch of teddy thank you's to add to my Penguin ones.  I am going to put this card in the "Anything Goes" Challenge at www.littlescrappieces.blogspot.com
I love that blog and they have some great designers.

Penguin Thank You Cards

I used the penguin from the Cricut Create a Critter 2 and a cut from the Elegant Edges cartridge  to make these cute thank you cards.
 

 
I used  the polka dot paper from the K&Company Mod Holiday designer pad and the sparkly teal is from a DCWV glitter paper stack. I handcut the sentiment tag and inked all around topping it off with a snowflake brad.  I flocked the hat and added a pompom  from Joann's. I used my cuttlebug to add a little texture  to look like snow and popped the penguin and sentiment up with foam squares. I added some paper to decorate the inside and I just love how these came out.
 
 
I decided to be a sane relaxed person over the holidays and didn't send out cards. At least I will have some cute thank yous to give out to special friends and family! I am thinking about entering a blog challenge. I've never done that so I will try to figure it out and hopefully it works:)
Yay it worked! I participated in the Monday challenge Frosty Days at one of my favorite blogs My Craft Spot! The designers on that blog are amazing.
