Merry Monday # 216 with an Elf

Hi again Friends!
 Linda is our Merry Maker and she is asking for an elf on our Merry Monday Christmas card.
I pulled out the MFT Santa Elves set.  I white embossed it and then used water color to paint it.  I also used a little brusho for my background.

Thank you for stopping by and looking, I hope to see your card in the gallery!
Heart Hugs, friends!

Oh..... your card is darling Colleen! I love that little guy and the way you colored him. I am not sure I even have an elf.
I made a card for last week and when I went to link up I realized I never used two pinks only pink and grey I made the card for MM.
