Let's Squash It! Challenge #26 - Make a Christmas Card

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the 26th challenge here at 

Let's Squash It! 

Let's Squash It! is The Embossing Folder Challenge.  

We are gonna help you explore the world of the not so humble embossing folder and encourage you to dig 'em out, knock the dust off and find old, new and fun ways to make your projects pop. 


We have an awesome team to keep you entertained and awesome challenge themes to stretch your creativity and get you using all those long forgotten and neglected embossing folders. 
For those of you who are just tuning in you can check the previous posts for the story behind the genesis of the challenge and the technique posts for awesome tips and techniques to help you make the most of your supplies and folders.

Challenges start on the 10th of the month and run to the last day at 23.59 GMT.  We will be picking top picks and a winner, who will have a chance to be our guest designer for a future challenge.


So, Challenge #26.
And this month's theme is...

Hi! I am Cat Craig. I was delighted and honoured when Gail and Jo asked me to be a
Guest Designer for the always fun Lets Squash It Challenge.

I was never much of a crafter until a dear friend introduced me to scrapbooking in 2006. A few years after that another friend introduced me to cardmaking. I was immediately hooked and eventually started my blog Cat Luvs Paper.
I love all kinds of techniques and card styles, though most of my cards are CAS. Whenever my mojo wanes, I look to a card challenge to rev it up again."

I have no excuse not to play along, since I still need to make loads of Christmas cards and using an EF is quick, easy and fun!
