Well, despite my best intentions, I am still 10 cards short for what I need this year - sheesh!!!!! So, I decided that today's Demo Card challenge would be to make a Quick Christmas card. Something that you could do a "Stamp-A-Stack" with or something you could throw together quickly for that unexpected or forgotten Christmas guest!!!!!!
Now, an additional challenge for those players with retiring products, is to use at least one retiring product when making their cards. As we don't have anything retiring until March, I'm using new and current stuff with my sample.
I received some new Jumbo Wheels in my most recent SU Order. I haven't purchased any wheels for a while and figured I should now start getting more now that I've got all the punches!!!!! Anyway, this card just came together really quickly and easily and of course, I could mix it up with other colour combos for a SAS (which is what I'll be doing tomorrow!!!!!)
I also had my first opportunity in trying out some new products to Australia - for the first time, in our current Mini we have available Tombow Adhesive and Chunky Glitter!!!!! I'm just so excited. On this sample, I put down some Tombow and added some of that Chunky Glitter to one of my stars - a very easy and simple way to jazz up a simple card. Oh, and of course, I added some ribbon.
Well, I would love to know what you think.
And TFL, as always!!!!

Great card! I got my glitter today, and I'm shakin' in my boots, scared to try it! (Deep breath.)
50 challenges: WOW! Thanks.

Very cute card, and so easy. The glitter really jazzes it up. I'm not really into the glitter scene, but may have to get some because of your card. Aren't the wheels just the easiest thing in the world? Loved that you used it on your card.
Thanks for sharing.
