2016 Christmas Cards - February

[troublesmom]

Jill I really like that top one the best.

You know, I'm laughing at ourselves at how critical we all are of ourselves.

Jill and Cheryl your cards are all lovely. I know multiple patterned papers are hard to use together and that was part of my intent for this challenge to make us use our patterned papers up. Everyone here has stepped up to the challenge beautifully.

Matting, as Marianne suggests or edging/distressing one or more layers really helps separate the prints so they can be seen. I'm hoping I make some time to do a few more for this month. By the time November rolls around I hope I can find enough people to send them to.

Nice cards, Jill, you really used your prints and "stuff" well.

I have my cards this month
But have been looking for a sketch
I found 2 that I like
Now I have to wait till November

Got my five done last night. I'm slowly working my way through a 2012 Authentique paper pack and sticker sheet, which feels so good! I have a bunch of leftover strips from last month, and an old fiber pack, that I used along with the papers and stickers. Oh, and a few enamel dots from a sheet on the desk.

[Debbie J]

Looking good Monica! It does feel good to use stuff up.

[paddlegal]

Oh Monica these are drop dead lovely! I too had that pad but no sticker sheet. Awesome cards.

[mpizzazz]

Those are really pretty, Monica!

[Monica]

Thank you all for the kind words. I love seeing how we all interpret the challenge differently.

[troublesmom]

Monica I really like those! What a wonderful job and the goodies all go so well with them.

[nancine]
