Now we are getting primed for Christmas with our Nutcrackers set. This set has two lovely nutcrackers to color any way you like. I let my 8 year old pick the colors for me . She was very excited and ran to get her hard cover picture book of The Nutcracker. She found the colors in the story and I did my best to create him true to the picture she had selected. I had to ad lib just a bit because my stamped nutcracker has a different uniform than my storybook nutcracker. My 8 year old was pleased nonetheless. That was a relief (if you have spent any time with 8 year olds you can appreciate how they tell it like it is)!
Thanks for stopping by today. Come on back tomorrow for more creativity!!!

Super coloring, papers, can colors! The gold cord is a perfect addition as well. Wonderful card Toni! Hugz!
So glad your daughter was happy with your nutcracker -- because it is just lovely. Nutcrackers are so fun because you can you lots of different color combinations.

Great job coloring him.When I started, I was at a loss on how to color mine so I had to google them. They all seemed pretty much the same, so I left thinking that there were limited ways to color him. I guess what was limited was my imagination. Seeing how we all colored him so differently has been fun. Great job showcasing this month's sets.
A very cute card.
Sweet little CAS card.
Pretty and elegant card, Toni!!
Very pretty card; love the rich colors you used.
Love these nutcrackers and the lovely job you did with this one!
