Baby Bud Challenge: Winter/Christmas

Hello my friends! I hope you all who celebrated Thanksgiving had an awesome day!! We had a fun time just us 3, my daughter has been really sick, she is feeling much better now and now I am sick. Too many nights laying next to her and hugging and cuddleing her, makes me the winner of the crazy bug she got, LOL.

Anyway, it is time for another Baby Bud Challenge, this time is Winter/Christmas theme! and a freebe Friday, better go to the Baby Bud Blog and grab it so you can play along with us! Also, you can visit the etsy store and find all the cutest Baby Bud Images!!

This is the card I made using "Holly" a brand new Baby Bud. Isn't she cute? I paper-pieced her dress, colored her with Copic Markers and added a really Christmas gold ribbon.

Hope you like it!
Have a great day!!
