E is for Elf, Easel and Embellishments

Happy Monday! Wow! What a weekend. Yesterday was stormy and we had several tornado warnings. Very unusual November weather but I guess Mother Nature isn't concerned with what month it is. We didn't sustain any damage but had several inches of rain. The temperatures are much cooler today.
My card today continues with the Month of Holiday Card challenge at Beccy's Place. Today's letter is E. I'm a bit behind as we were away for part of the weekend and I wasn't able to bring crafty things with me.

I made an easel card featuring an elf with lots of embellishments! The elf is from Bugaboo Stamps. I colored him with Spectrum Noir and Copic markers and die cut him with MFT Inside and Out Stitched Rounded Squares. Actually several other layers are cut with the same dies. The blue layer is from my scrap box. For embellishments I added glossy accents to the ornaments. I used a snowflake punch and then used several colors of Stickles on the snowflakes and the elf hat. The sentiment on the inside of the card is from a retired Stampin' Up! set.
I am entering these challenges:

My computer seems to be having trouble loading things today so that's the reason for my lack of links. Hopefully it will resolve itself at some point and I can add them later. Off to pick up the twins at Head Start. Thanks for stopping by!

Donna, your card is adorable. Perfect image for the "E", and an easel card...one of my favorite layouts.

I'm very glad to hear you didn't sustain any damage Donna, sounds like a wild weekend!
I love the non-traditional colours you used on your fabulous card, they are so bright and fun. The little elf image is adorable and you did a wonderful job on the colouring. The snowflake embellishments are wonderful and finish your card perfectly. Well done!
Cheers,
Beccy
