Very cute Nancy. Don't you love having ready made elements? Great embossed background.

I got ambitious tonight and got 4 done in Pam's sketch plus one oddball one. This is really a 3-fer. Pam's sketch, my January monochromatic card challenge and Debi's "use your secret sister gifts". The papers I used are from a paper pad that Debi sent me.

I haven't checked in here lately but what wonderful cards!
Marianne I love you winter theme! Beautiful colors.

Nancy very clever job on that tree using a flower pot!

Farley knocking out all the challenges is a great job.

Well done on all the cards.

Farley, the stamped background is perfect.

You have all made some really pretty cards.

Still plenty of time to jump in. This card is very easy to make. Even if you don't use this design, make a few cards and post them here. Get a head start on Christmas 2016!

The stamped trees really add nice depth!
Does that mean my icy tree card could be in the monochromatic challenge, too? I did wonder.

Love the added backgrounds, ladies. I would have never thought of that. Thanks for the inspiration.

Thanks everyone! I do feel great to have 5 cards already. Keep us going Pam.


Of course it can Marianne! It's perfect for the Monochromatic challenge.

Marianne another cool winner! Great background using the vellum.

Cheryl at the rate you're going you should be done with your card needs! Terrific cards. Love the circle idea. May be CASE-ing that one.
