Merry Monday #64

Happy Tuesday morning!  This is the first Merry Monday of this year that I have the chance to participate in...YAY!!  Here is the sketch for this week:
And here is my entry:

I started searching my stash of Christmas papers for what to use, and came across this one in a pack I bought from the dollar spot at Target some time ago, which I matted on a piece of white.  Then I decided it matched this glitter paper from an unknown source.  I added a strip of white punched with the Dotted Wave punch.  All were inked with a green Studio G ink cube.  The ornament was cut from a scrap of red with a Sizzix die I found at Goodwill.  :)  I added the bling to it for more interest.
Well, I guess that's all for now...

Take Care,

Hey! Guess what? I made a Christmas card! :)

That's right!  A Christmas card!  I'm so glad to finally get back on track in making my Christmas cards...I'm so far behind this year!!  So here is what I made:


The image is from Bugaboo, and the dp is from the "Merry" 6x6 paper pad from MME.  You can't tell in the pic, but the image is backed by some glitter paper, and the bell is colored in with a gold Gelly Roll pen.  I apologise for the washed out look of this picture.  This is the first time I have taken any pics in my *NEW ROOM!*, and I think I will have to experiment more.  The colors are a little more intense in real life.  I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Jingle Belles:  Tie a Holiday Ribbon
Winter Wonderland:  All Tied Up
ABC Christmas Challenge:  Jingle Bells

Thanks for looking, and I hope everyone in the US is having a nice Memorial Day weekend.  Please remember why this holiday exists...

Take Care...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!
