How about some mid-month Christmas inspiration with CHNC Extra?

That's right, you read the title correctly.  I have made something to share for some mid-month inspiration at CHNC Extra.  I hardly EVER get anything done for that, as Hazel makes it optional, but this time, I thought I would be a little different and join in.
 
 
AND, to throw you off some more, I made not one but FOUR cards...HA HA!  So the story is, I had these journaling cards already cut out on my desk for a time when I wanted to create something while lacking some mojo.  That time had come.  So I grabbed these up, went back to the paper pad they came from to search out coordinating papers, and viola!  A little assembly line production procedures, and *BOOM*, 4 more Christmas cards done for the stash.  Incidentally, I lost the cover of the paper pad, but I'm pretty sure it's from MME.  Here are some individual card pics:
 
 
 
 
 
On the top card, I did cover the smaller sentiment area with a Spellbinders Label die and a Momenta sentiment.  All 4 journaling cards are backed by a kraft Spellbinders scalloped rectangle mat, and all card bases are kraft as well.  I used fun foam to add dimension behind the journaling panels.  *CAS love.*
 
Challenges:
 
12 Months of Christmas Link Up #27:  ATG, or optional Christmas Angels theme
Sparkles Christmas #74:  Use silver or gold (top card sentiment is embossed in gold)
Christmas Card Challenges #8:  ATG or optional photo inspiration
CHNC #324:  ATG or optional Santa theme
Jingle Belles:  The Holly and the Ivy...aka Christmas foliage (see card #2)
Create and Inspire #60:  ATG or optional create and Easter gift
Cards in Envy:  Keep it Simple
 
 
Well, I suppose that's all for now.  I should probably get myself to bed...we had a snow day today, so I stayed up late last night watching Netflix.  Headed back to work tomorrow!  God Bless the rest of your week!
