Here is a card I mad in non-traditional colors of Christmas. In other words there is no red and green. I made a folded Christmas tree with double-sided cardstock and placed it on the Kiwi doilly diecut made by Cheery Lynn Designs' die. I am entering this in the Cheery Lynn Designs' challenge "Non-traditonal Christmas Colors". My greeting is by Recollections and it was placed on a Spellbinders diecut.

Snowman on Layers
Here is a card I made for Christmas Challenges with Sketches using the sketch they provided. I have really been getting into this site as it give me an opportunity to use my scraps and gives me a new way of giving dimension to my cards.
I have used my all-time favorite snowman stamp. I have used it so much; it is one made by Hero Arts. The greeting is by Stampin' Up.
I hope you like my card. All the layers really give the card body.

Following a Sketch
Here is a card I made following a sketch on Christmas Challenges with Sketches. It has multiple layers of Christmas paper, some die cuts and a digital image I have had for a long time, but I don't but know its origin. The picture of the two tags are the ones that go inside the front of the card.

Layer Upon Layer
I'm getting in the mood for Christmas. Here is a multi-layer 6-inch square card. I have been able to use a lot of scraps from Christmas past with this card. My folded tree is the focal image of the card instead of a digital or stamped image. I have my Christsmas message / greeting inside. This card is being entered in Christmas Challenges with Sketches.

Going Vintage
Here is a vintage card I made using a digital from Just Some Lines. This is my inspirational piece for their challenge of Recycling and Repurpose.. I used a pair of earrings that I had made and I hadn't worn them in a long time. I thought they were the perfect color to include with my flowers.
I am also entering this in Cheery Lynn Designs' challenge Vintage. Cheery Lynn dies are the Celtic Fire Rectangle Frame and the Build a Flower #2 and Embellishment #2. These are the very first flowers I have made with the Build A Flower dies. I am very pleased how they turned out.
