2012 Christmas Card Challenge Week #18

Yola!

So, as I sit here typing this post for today, I'm completely dumbfounded at how quickly the year is going by.  Today is April 1st!  Wow.  I'm almost speechless.  lol  Anyone else feel like they're losing time, like me?

Anyway, I have a new Christmas card for you today.  The challenge this week is a sketch, created by our dear Peggy.  For all of the details, click HERE.


Here is the card I created, based on the sketch.


You know how I am about non-traditional Christmas colors, and this card is no exception.  I got the color combo from the photo below.


I love how it turned out.  It's a bit smaller than a normal A2 card, but I think I'm going to use it as a card for a gift come Christmas time.  I've combined the following challenges as well.

Stampin For The Weekend #6 - Anything Goes
Alphabet Challenge Blog - D for Dry Embossing
Mark's Finest Papers #101 - Square Card
52 Christmas Card Throwdown - Anything Goes

I hope you'll head over to see what our lovely design team, and new guest designer, have created for you today.  They're all pretty fabulous, as usual.

Stay crafty my friends!
