My MTTCC #114 steampunk and/or masculine theme Christmas card for 6 June 2025

 Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!

why: This posting showcases my newest Christmas theme design team project for My Time To Craft Christmas, a challenge blog. #114 is part of a series on techniques or styles and one of the DT members has suggested that we try Steampunk and/or Masculine!! I've found these old screw-head type puffy stickers during this past month and thought they might come in handy for this #114 theme. Add some male gnomes, lights hanging on the mushroom house, some sentiments then some Christmas traditional colors and some dark masculine colors for the scrap cuts background!

when: #114 starts Friday June 6th and lasts for 13 days

what: Project = Time to Celebrate--Welcome--Home

1. green cardstock base scrap panel = Pen + Gear
