Setting The Scene With Polka Doodles

Good morning everyone, I'm writing this post at 7am in the hope that it pops up at 9.00 when I shall be at the hairdressers which this time I'm not looking forward too as my hairdresser left last week and I have someone new. My hair isn't the easiest to cut so I'm hoping the new one can cope with it!
We have a new challenge for you over at Polka Doodles which has been chosen this week by Lou and she would like to see your creations with the theme of Setting The Scene. This is something I've been doing more of so watch this space for something really different on Monday!
Her's my card for this challenge which is a tent shaped card:


All the elements on the card are from the Magical Winter CD set and I printed out the backing paper on sturdy card and used this to make the tent shape. I used the Santa's workshop cabin at the back of the aperture in the card to set my scene.
I then simply added Santa, Rudolph, some presents and a greeting on the sides of the card and my scene was set - how easy is that! The only tricky bit was making sure that the pleated base section didn't show to spoil the scene.

The DT have made some fabulous examples to inspire you and really varied too so do pop over to the challenge blog for a peek - you will love what they've made.

I'm entering my card in the following challenge:
Scrapbook Sisters - Ho Ho Ho

Have a great weekend.
