Chester da Snowman

Hi and welcome to another Christmas card!

Today's card is a card I made for the Jingle Belles Rock Challenge, where I am their Guest Designer.
These two ladies, Lauren and Stef, really do "rock," too!

Their challenges are designed to get all of us "procrastinators" to make a Christmas card every week so that we do not find ourselves card less at the last minute.

Wow!  I really need that kind of encouragement.  Don't you?
This is their challenges' first venture into the world of "Digital Stamping," so I chose a really cute snowman image from Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps And More.


Sooooooo...... Here's Chester da Snowman!




Chester is loaded with glitter although it does not really look like that in the photo.  I think Christmas cards should have lots of glitter and snowflakes wherever possible.

1.  Digital Stamp - Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps And More - "Chester da Snowman"
2.  Digital Paper - Bearly Mine Designs - "Christmas Fun"
3.  Cardstock - Bazzill Basics
4.  Prismacolor Premier Colored pencils, OMS, stumps
5.  Martha Stewart border punch - "Icicle"

Thank you to the "Jingle Belles," Lauren and Stef, for giving me the opportunity to be their Guest Designer for their current challenge!

Don't forget to enter the challenge at "Jingle Belles Rock" this week!  You will be very happy you did!  You might just find a little surprise there!

What better way to get started on your Christmas Cards, right?

So, until next time, let's all rock with the "Jingle Belles!"

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock


Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring


Snowin’ and blowin’ up bushels of fun

Now the jingle hop has begun



Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time

Dancin’ and prancin’ in Jingle Bell Square

In the frosty air



What a bright time, it’s the right time

To rock the night away


To go glidin’ in a one-horse sleigh



Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet

Jingle around the clock

Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin’ feet

That’s the jingle bell rock



Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time

Dancin’ and prancin’ in Jingle Bell Square

In the frosty air



What a bright time, it’s the right time

To rock the night away

Jingle bell time is a swell time

To go glidin’ in a one-horse sleigh



Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet

Jingle around the clock

Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin’ feet

That’s the jingle bell

That’s the jingle bell

That’s the jingle bell rock….
