SHELBYWOO: great pretty sketches! Thanks for posting early! I can't wait to start working on these tonight. Wonderful sample cards as well... must be nice to craft with someone... hee hee. I like the bright colors on the first one and also the more subdued colors on the second one. Both very pretty!

Dee thanks for posting the colors and great choices!! hey my first card comes pretty darn close!!! :)

I like this idea! I don't like being rushed at the end of the year trying to make all sorts of Christmas cards



DeeScraps: thanks for posting the colors early!

cstanzione: glad to hear you got your PC back and working... I'll have to think about the cartridge, are you accepting PayPal?

Sketch 1 using Ad colors

No Cricut (at least not yet, I might add some flourish)... I haven't quite decided how to apply a sentiment but I think I'll make this a Christmas card



The buttons are over 20 years old (I'm going to keep up with using up old things!)

Cstanzione, glad to see you are able to post your cards again! Great set of cards! I especially love the last one! That little girl with the dog chasing behind is so cute!

ShelbyWoo, Is the three diamond shapes one big piece, or are there three diamond shapes? Was all of it used in the bigshot? Really great look, both of them! I love how you broke up the pattern paper and embossed paper on your Valentine card!

Larkspur, I really like those flowers! Is it a stamp, or did you paint them yourself?

Sketch 2, also a digi from Karen's Doodle, like the elephant!

Hello everyone. Lots of wonderful cards already. I have one to post that is from last week.

Shellbywoo: Loved all the cards. It's great when people use things that I forget about having....like the Cuttlebug. The same with Raquel using "old" things. Those buttons were very eye catching.

Sunnieday: Have fun this weekend retreat and I'll be sure to check out your page.

Larkspur: I liked the colors you used on #3.

Sandy: Another great card, loved all the aspects of it and the image is adorable.

Cstazone: So glad you were able to save the info on your computer. Hope things start looking up for you. The three cards from last week were very nice.

Shelby....I would also like to know about the Christmas Card weekly challenge. Thanks.

Dee
