Hello everyone, and welcome to a new challenge at ABC Christmas Challenges.
This time we have 2 themes, and they are
J for Jingle Bells
and/or
K for Kraft

These are my contributions
J for Jingle Bells
I used an old Altenew Magazine kit for this card, stamping and die-cutting the bells and bows first. I put the bells on a sponge mat and used an embossing tool on the back to give them a bit of a curve as they looked a bit flat without. A lick of Wink of Stella also gave a little sparkle.
I stamped the background with the sprigs in a few shades of green and then used an embossing plate from Papertrey Ink to add a little texture.The sentiment is also PTI. I finished by inking some white card's edges to create a layer and adding a few die-cut dots leftover from another project.
I am sad to say goodbye to our lovely Teammate, Marie, who is leaving us this month, and I wish her all the best for the future. The rest of the team has some great inspiration for you, and you can see it at the ABC Challenges blog

Those bells are beautiful!
Lovely cards. I really like your red bells with the stamped and blended background.
Always like seeing cards using the traditional seasonal reds and greens and this one with the bells is lovely, however I'm very much drawn to your use of white and Kraft, most effective Carol.

Great holiday cards! Those bells are so fun. I may need this die cut. Thanks for sharing with A Cut Above's May Challenge.
Two fabulous Christmas cards Carol!! I especially love the jingle bells ones. I have similar dies but have never figured out what to do with them. I'm inspired by your greenery for them to hang from. xx
They are gorgeous cards Carol, love the traditional bells and the modern reindeer. Hope you are ok and enjoying the weather xx
Two wonderful Christmas cards! Lovely bells in red! Beautiful second card with the reindeer, too, so cute!
The embossing to add some shape to those bells really brings them to life ... what a lovely card ... so very glad you rang your Christmas Bells with the Jingle Belles.
