~ Hard Candy Christmas ~ 

Hey, maybe I'll dye my hair

Maybe I'll move somewhere

Maybe I'll get a car

Maybe I'll drive so far

They'll all lose track

Me, I'll bounce right back

Maybe I'll sleep real late

Maybe I'll lose some weight

Maybe I'll clear my junk

Maybe I'll just get drunk on apple wine

Me, I'll be just

Fine and Dandy

Lord it's like a hard candy Christmas

I'm barely getting through tomorrow

But still I won't let

Sorrow bring me way down

I'll be fine and dandy

Lord it's like a hard candy Christmas

I'm barely getting through tomorrow

But still I won't let

Sorrow bring me way down

Hey, maybe I'll learn to sew

Maybe I'll just lie low

Maybe I'll hit the bars

Maybe I'll count the stars until dawn

Me, I will go on

Maybe I'll settle down

Maybe I'll just leave town

Maybe I'll have some fun

Maybe I'll meet someone

And make him mine

Me, I'll be just

Fine and dandy

Lord it's like a hard candy Christmas

I'm barely getting through tomorrow

But still I won't let

Sorrow bring me way down

I'll be fine and dandy

Lord it's like a hard candy Christmas

I'm barely getting through tomorrow

But still I won't let

Sorrow bring me way down

I'll be fine and dandy

Lord it's like a hard candy Christmas

I'm barely getting through tomorrow

But still I won't let

Sorrow bring me way down

'Cause I'll be fine

(I'll be fine)

Oh, I'll be fine

For this challenge I went with a gingerbread house with candy cane pillars and other assorted candy decorations.  This sweet digi is from Moondrea Designs and it's called Snowglobe.

I imported it into the Silhouette Design Studio and created the Snowglobe shaped card base.  I used copic markers to colour it and added a small poinsettia on either side of the bow. These small poinsettias were made using the Small Blooming Poinsettias die from Poppy Stamps.

On the inside, I made a snowglobe mat and stamped the greeting, which is from the Naughty or Nice stamp set from Cardz TV.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Now it's your turn to make a Christmas project,  and come play along with us.  You have till the end of the month to link your project to our blog at  Christmas Crafts All Year 'Round.
