Santa outside my window

FarmQuest Country Christmas Challenge has a brand-new challenge for you to join! 

This challenge blog is all about celebrating the cozy, rustic charm of country life during the holidays — think barns, wildlife, snow-covered fields, and all things outdoorsy and festive! 

Each challenge is Anything Goes, as long as it captures that country Christmas feel.

We are a just-for-fun challenge, but you could earn our Grand Champion Winner Badge (with a Guest DT invite) or proudly display our Wintery Top 3 Badge on your blog or socials.

My project features a wintery Christmas scene made with die-cuts.

I started with an embossed background then cut the red window frame and added foam tape to the back.  I created the Santa sled scene with another die cut and black cardstock.  After putting it all together, I added a sprig of greenery and a silver bow. 

I can’t wait see what you create — and don’t forget to check out the blog for beautiful inspiration from the rest of the Design Team!

Happy crafting!

Santa over the Northern Lights

I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve joined the Design Team at the Country Christmas Challenge Blog 

This unique challenge blog is all about embracing the charm of farm life and country living — with a festive twist! Each challenge focuses on Christmas and winter themes, highlighting:

• Snowy landscapes & nature scenes
• Outdoor holiday decorations
• Rustic winter porches, barns, and farm vibes

Anything that captures the magic of a country Christmas! If you love the warmth of holiday traditions set against a snowy, rural backdrop, this is the perfect challenge for you.

We are a just-for-fun challenge, but you could earn the title of Grand Champion Winner (with a possible Guest Designer invite!) or be selected as one of our Wintery Top 3 and proudly display your badge!

I’m so excited to share my first project and to create alongside a wonderfully talented team.

This card was inspired by the magic of a snowy, country Christmas Eve! I used Distress Oxide Inks to create a glowing Northern Lights background. The trees were stamped with black Versafine ink to create a silhouette against the clear sky.  The sled is part of the Twas the Night Before Christmas die and I finished the card with a splattering of white paint and a sentiment strip and coordinating die cut.

Be sure to follow the Country Christmas Challenge Blog and join us for some rustic, wintery inspiration. We can't wait to see what you create!

Happy crafting!
