A couple days late, but here is some CHNC Extra DT inspiration for you!

Hello, fellow bloggers!  It seems I have been gone from here for a long time.  Honestly, I didn't spend a whole lot of time in my craft room (where the desktop computer is) in the month of April, so that's why my CHNC Extra DT post is late.  My apologies!  Here is what you came to see:
 
 
This purple Christmas card uses the Snowman Jingle Bell image from Bugaboo.  I would link to it, but I can't find it in the store.  I had it colored up, sitting on my desk, so I used it for my challenge card.  I needed some sketch inspiration, so I headed over to the Catch The Bug blog and found their current Stella Says Sketch challenge:
 
I love having a sketch to go by, as it takes some of the thinking out of it for me!  LOL  I'm going to check out some other challenges to link this card to, but please make sure you check out the CHNC Extra blog, and make a few cards to add!  You'll be that much closer to having lots of cards for your Christmas card stash!  Also, check out my fellow teamies' creations and leave them some blog love, as they are no less than stellar!  :)
 
Challenges:
 
Catch The Bug:  Stella Says Sketch #509
Sweet Stampin' Christmas:  April Anything Christmas
12 Months of Christmas Link Up #29:  ATG or optional "Cute Christmas" theme

Well, I guess that's enough...this has taken me forever to do, since I have changed desktops and lost all my favorites!  I found some new ones though!  :0
 
Thanks for stopping by today.  Take it easy and God Bless!
