Happy Saturday, everyone! I was blessed enough to be asked to be a guest designer again for those sweet girls at a la Card Monkey!
Here’s the sketch & challenge:
Well, that fits right into my one-a-week Christmas card challenge to myself! I chose to do CAS, as the days before convention are flying by!
Elegant Eggplant is a color I rarely use, so I thought it would be nice to make a monochromatic Christmas card with this regal color! Welcome Christmas has such lovely silhouettes, and each word from the sentiment from Come to Bethlehem was inked with markers and stacked so I could punch them out with a circle punch:
I also added the sentiment from Welcome Christmas on the inside:
That Patterns DP looks so nice with this! I hope you have some time to play along with those Card Monkeys, too!
Wee Details:
- Stamps: Welcome Christmas, Come to Bethlehem
- Paper: VV, Elegant Eggplant, Elegant Eggplant Patterns DP
- Ink: Elegant Eggplant
- Acc: Circle Punch, Nestie, Pearls, Crochet Trim
Joy!

I always enjoy your cards so much, and the added bonus each time is the picture of that precious granddaughter. Today's just makes me giggle....
Incredible card - I would never have thought of that color for Christmas but it is so elegant. Just lovely!
