Lollie Christmas Lodge

Lollie Christmas Lodge
Just two more days until the Stampin' Up! Holiday Mini Catalog starts and I am so excited!  So many beautiful stamp sets, cute papers and the Simply Scored!  I pulled my new Simply Scored out to make the lollie for this card.  Love the way it scores so easily.  Ladies coming to my card buffet tonight will have a chance to use it themselves.
For this card I chose to enter three challenges.  The first for the sketch was The Friday Mashup FM#21 and the challenge was:
So here is how we are "MASHING IT UP" this week
Create a project using the provided "Sketch". or Create a project that has a "Dry Embossing on it". or "Mash it Up!" and create a card using the "Sketch with Dry Embossing".  So I chose to "Mash it Up!" using the Sketch and the new Snow Burst Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.
Snow Burst Textured Impressions Embossing Folder
 The next challenge I am entering is Cas-ual Fridays CFC #17 Their challenge this week is to use stickers(rub-ons are fine too if you don't have stickers) in your clean and simple design.  I chose to use the Season's Greetings from the Retired SU Chit Chat Rub-ons.

And the final challenge that I am entering this week is a color challenge over at In{k}spire Me Challenge #7
My free color I chose was Cherry Cobbler(my favorite).  The paper I used to make my lollie with is our new Frostwood Lodge in the new Holiday Mini.  This is my new favorite paper and I will be using it a lot in the coming months.   
I was just notified that I won runner up for this card and now I have a new badge:

Great use of all those challenges together.. The color combo is great with that image.. I think this is going to be a very popular set in the Holiday Mini. I love the DSP they have to match it as well. Thanks for joining us at the Friday Mashup this week.
