A little Non-Traditional Christmas

Hey Hey it is hump day and my day off !  The weather here is beautiful today, and I am excited cause I will get some time to lay in the pool and relax, it has been really overcast and cloudy here lately so I am glad to see Mr. Sun today!

I decided to join up in the Mini card kit swap in the Magnolia-licious group so I always like to make my card so I can make sure they get what they need.  I am trying very hard to use things I have and not buy anything cause I have tons of stuff that has just been sittin around collecting dust KWIM!  So the new item here is the cardstock base and the little bows!   The rest has been here:)

 
I have used the mini "Tilda with a Lantern" and have perched her on some twigs.  She is colored with copics.  The fur on her jacket is done with some flower soft and her mittens and socks have stickles added to them.  I have raised her and the sentiment for depth.
 

 
I hope the gals that get the kits have fun with them!  That makes 2 Christmas cards done already :)
 
I am entering this into the following challenges:
 
Paper Shelter - #123 punches and dies
Cute Card Thursday - anything goes
Dutch Magnolia Chickies - anything goes #49
Creative Inspirations - something old/ something new
 
That's it for me today hope you all have a great week!
Hugs,
