Posted: Sun Dec 04, 2022 9:10 pm
One of the best parts of the holidays is curling up on the couch with some hot cocoa and settling in for a true Christmas movie marathon. But, alas, the season is fleeting, so don't waste your precious festive time channel surfing or digging through streaming sites—just join us here at Cookin' Up Creations where we will be posting challenges all month long based on heartwarming classics like It's a Wonderful Life to Christmas-movie-legend Home Alone. It's a month guaranteed to bring back movie memories and put you in the holiday spirit.
Remember - A new Blue Plate Special challenge is posted each Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, and participants have until the 3rd of the following month to complete and post their creations.
Prize will be a $20 Gift Certificate to their favorite online store (random drawing).....
For my project, I was inspired by the movie Elf.
Elf is my family's favorite movie. We quote it all year. My children used to reenact the escalator scene every time we went to the mall. Our dog's "voice" sounds like Mr. Narwahl. And one Christmas a few years back, my daughter, pretending to be Buddy the Elf, chugged the remnants of a Ginger Ale two liter and said,"Us Elves believe in the four main food groups; candy, candy canes, candy corns, and sugar."
My challenge to you is to not only use the sketch found below from my former design team 2 Broke Girls for your project but also, as inspired by Buddy and my daughter, showcase a holiday treat that includes one of an Elf's 4 main food groups in some way on your project. Perhaps it's a gingerbread house that your family constructed or a batch of cookies you whipped up for a holiday gathering. I can not wait to see how you feature one of the "four main food groups" of the Elves!
