Challenge #1: Ugly Sweater Inspiration

Here's what I chose from Bethany's Pinterest board 


SERIOUSLY??? you say? Well, yes! 

Having just spent a late Christmas celebration with the entire family at home, 

I was immediately inspired to "elf" the grandbabies.

 

 

This was really FUN :~D

Now YOU get to have a little fun! Check out the list of challenges at the first stop on the hop list below, then keep on hopping & see how everyone else was inspired.

  8. BRAVO! BRAVO! As I said last night, it looks totally like a Jib Jab video. I would love to add some music and watch them dance around. Exceptional creativity here from the idea itself, to the hand cut outfits and fussy cut "Happy". Just pure "elfin" magic!
