Just us Girls #754

After all that silliness with Buddy - yes, I did watch Elf on TBS last night - it was time to get serious about the gorgeousness found in the moodboard at Just us Girls #754.  Oh boy, did I have a hard time choosing which bit to use as it ALL inspired me, Carol Mc!  Take a look:


I hadn't created any gingerbread houses yet this year - or a grand ginger-hotel.  Hope this one doesn't have anyone thinking 'the Overlook.'


My snowy hill was inspired by the whipped cream; of course, the
ginger house sitting on the edge of the cup - but I already made that card.
The grey of those leggings drove the color of my car and the lovely
red ribbons on those packages were the inspiration for decor.  It all made me happy for that Concord & 9th Over the Rooftops set.

I even managed to fit ALL of Santa's reindeer - including that 
red-nosed guy leading the pack!


Looks like there would be room for all of us crafters - who's in?

I'm loving your perfectly decorated ginger-hotel and all of those teeny tiny trees! Glad Santa had all of his reindeer to get him up and over those whipped cream mountains! Super cute, Michele and so happy to spot it in our JUGs gallery!

I absolutely love everything about this! The snow and wreaths decorating that inn with Santa flying high above makes a fabulous scene. Thanks for playing along with us again here at JUGS!

It would be great to get a ginger hotel for us all to congregate and craft, Michele. Meanwhile I'll just admire your paper one. Way to go getting all the reindeer in front of Santa's sleigh.

There I go again. Forgetting to thank you for sharing your card at Just Us Girls.

I don't remember ever watching Elf, but I may have to make a point of it this year. I absolutely love your card with all those sweet little parts for the scene. I'm late to the party with it being one thing after another here, but enjoying my visit. Thanks!
