Fa la la friends!

As I carry on making Christmas cards for my seniors, every once in a while, I make a few that I want to share with all of you - hope you don't mind?

I ordered from Alex Syberia Designs last sale as I just could resist these caroling friends any longer... you'll understand when you see them.  There are three characters in the set.  Pig and Dog seem to be the singers of the group, while Bunny seems to be the conductor - at least that's what I see! ha - here are my Fa la la Friends:


The companion die set cuts every image in the set - here I just stamped the musical notes and chorus line onto my card.  You'll see that old Lil' Inkers' woodgrain* quite a bit now - 'tis the season!

I also imagined Bunny putting his back into pulling that sleigh-full of presents. I just added a little length of black quilting thread from his arms to the sleigh!


Now, if Pig and Dog are singing, why couldn't they sing happy birthday?
This sentiment is from PTI and fit my card perfectly.

It's a party, and we can't have a party without streamers, right?
These are from the ASD Carnival Party Stencil set - it'll be a minute before
I get that alignment perfect but aren't they fun?!

So that's ASD Falala Friends ... I better get back to work crafty fun now!  Thanks for stopping by!

  1. These are over-the-top adorable!!! The critters (am a critter gal, rather than floral one) are so cute and your coloring is terrific. This is a company with which I am not familiar, so I will need to check it out. Thanks for the smile at the start of the day these gave me!

  10. Very cute set of course and no I don't ever mind you sharing cards with us. Just keep them coming. I do love those streamers. I just succumbed to one of their sales too and bought a whole load of sentiments and foil plates. Am now feeling very guilty about spending money when I have been very good at resisting for ages xx
