Blog hop to celebrate our 500th Challenge at Fab'n'Funky Challenges

Good morning all

We have a fabulous celebration this week over at 

Fab'n'Funky Challenges

this week we are celebrating our 500th challenge - and we decided to do it with a blog hop

If you start the hop over at the first post at Fab'n'Funky Challenges you can see all the fabulous prizes up for grabs and visit the blogs in the correct order so that you can collect words along the way and enter our challenge this week.

I decided to make a Christmas card this week in the traditional colours of Christmas that I always love - if I'm going to hit that Christmas card target this year I really need to get going!

Here's my inspiration using this cute little pup from the January New Release 

He's called Yarn guard pup by Miss Rach and is available HERE

I so enjoyed making this card - I had an idea that I would make it fairly CAS and masculine and I think I achieved at least the last part of that! (perhaps a few to many layers for CAS - but definitely ok for a male card!) - though I'm sure "he" could become a "she" with a colour change and some pretty embellies

The hop will run for 1 week and end on Friday 10^th January at 12 Noon EST, when the lucky winners will be announced right here.
