Tickled Pink Stamps Challenge #49

*for my Christmas Candy see the sticky post at the top of my blog*

Honestly, I'm so far behind, I think I'm first! LOL

I spent the whole day in the big city yesterday running around getting the dogs haircuts, picking up pictures, grocery shopping, Christmas shopping, fighting traffic, tracking down my immunization status forms (for employment purposes-this whole agency nursing is crazy)...then going to meetings in a neighboring town.....coming home, unloading, reorganizing & hiding all the stuff I bought for Christmas.

Needless to say this post will be short and sweet cuz it's 11 pm and I have to work tomorrow ( 7:30am til 3:30 pm- not my normal 12 hr shift) so I can come home and go to my kids' Christmas Concert! 

Blah blah blah right! Then work Friday and off for a few! 

Thanks goodness. 

It's  Tickled Pink Stamps Challenge time again with the theme of 

SHABBY CHIC

REMEMBER - you must use a stamp from the Tickled Pink Stamp Ranges which can be purchased at the  Tickled Pink Stamps Store.........in order to participate in the TPSC!!! 

 Much like Vintage and I, Shabby Chic is like a thorn in my side. HOWEVER, I am super oooober pleased with how this one came together! 

I have used Little Evie for my card. I got out my snowflake die cut set and went straight to work! 

The paper was a gift from a friend and the words Joy to the World were already on the paper! Conveniently placed right!!! I added tons o texture from my blingy brads, cordouroy brad, cheesecloth, distressing and puffballs on her hat.......don't forget the crackle paint & glitter! 

Ok, so NOT such a short post, but you get my drift! LOL

Challenges for my card:

Cute Card Thursday- anything goes
Crafty Purple Frog- It's cold outside
