Happy Tuesday, peeps! I have been really struggling with creativity and energy these last few weeks…..and the heat and humidity lately have not helped at all. Poor John….I have been a bit crabby lately! I tried to cool off by making a quick Christmas card, but even that didn’t help much:
I used the red and white theme from Merry Monday:
as well as the sketch from CAS(e) This Sketch:
and the JUGS challenge to use stacked diecuts:
Nothing was working for me, but I persevered long enough to finish my Christmas card; I used snowflake diecuts from Taylored Expressions and the word “merry” is from Paper Trey. I added a couple of sentiments from Endless Wishes and Endless Birthday Wishes along with some rhinestones to finish it off! Hopefully my mojo will return some time this week!
Cassidy finally convinced her mommy to let her cut her hair a little bit…morning brush-outs were becoming brutal! She looks more grown up and the brushing is MUCH better!
Enjoy your day and stay cool!

Love your card! If you don't have AC ... Get a plastic kids pool and play/sit in it😊
And Her hair will be so much healthier. I always think the more you cut the thicker it gets. Mine is like that. Such a sweet picture. It just seems like yesterday that she was a tiny baby. What a sweetheart.
Beautiful card I love the way the red really pops. Those are great snowflakes. I may have to steal this one for next months challenge at Your Paper Pantry if it is OK with you.
Have a great day!
Very pretty card.
Cassidy does look more grown up and so cute.
LOL....I do have A/C but the pool is definitely going up this week....and our water is SO cold, I am sure it will cool me off! Thanks!!!
Thanks, Linda, and you know you can always CASE anything of mine! ♥ Hope all is well with your family!
Thanks, JoAnn!
I love this card, LeAnne! This is just a perfect CAS card! I struggle with those.
Love Cassidy's new do! She does look more grown up!
Don't come to GA now. It is 100 today! I played tennis! I need my head examined! LOL! XXX
I get cranky too when it's ridiculously hot LOL!! Our poor hubbys. I LOVE LOVE this card LeAnne, a new fave from you!! Cassidy looks so sweet. Isn't it funny what a few inches will do. She was a cutie patootie before, but her smile say's I like this mommy!!
OH my goodness.....I hope you played at 5am when it was cool!!!
When I saw the pictures from the zoo trip, I thought her hair looked shorter:) I do love your 'chilly' Christmas card. The red and white are gorgeous. Fun addition of the bling on the snowflakes:)
Love how you've used this sketch and the red and white! A gorgeous Christmas card, LeAnne! Cassidy is so pretty and growing up so fast!
Love your red and white creation! Those are some fun dies. Love the new hairdoo!
Oh I have been struggling with creativity too, LeAnne. I've been trying to finish one card for three days. Your red and white card is just perfect, though! So nice and clean but bright and happy at the same time. Cassidy DOES look so grown up with her new haircut! Love it!
Love this red and white card, it is beautiful!!!

This card is stunning, I love all the white layers!
Love the red and white, so crisp and clean.....pretty card! Thanks for joining us at Just Us Girls!
LeAnne - this is fantastic! I love the crispness of your card with the red and white. I also love the white text on the white base. Something I will have to try someday! Now that I am attempting to craft again, I will try it soon! :) BTW, are those snowflakes from the long ago SU! embellishment kit that had a variety of different snowflakes in different colors? If so, I think I still have some in my stash!
Just love Cassidy's new haircut! She is definitely growing up! Also love your wonderful Christmas card, LeAnne! those red snowflakes are very pretty and I love how you did the sentiment!! Thanks for playing along with us this week over at Merry Monday! Oh, and stay cool!!! :)
Gorgeous card, LeAnne!! Love the red, crisp snowflakes! Thanks for playing with my challenge this week over at Merry Monday!!
Just so crisp and fresh, there's something about red & white...
Thanks for joining us at Case this sketch LeAnne!
Wonderful use of the sketch, LeAnne--beautiful card!
Your card just jumped out at me in the MM gallery. So pretty.
Okay...and the winner is...YOU! In my book, this is the perfect representation of the theme. Your Cassidy is a little doll. Like her new "do" a lot.
This a beautiful card - love the merry die cut.
This is a gorgeous card - and I do have to get one of those merry die cuts soon... it looks great!
Love this LeAnne! what a great mix of die cuts and stamping!
Cassidy is sooooo cute, and she does look older with the new hair trim. Super cute! Love the crisp effect on your card with red snowflakes, different but it looks great.
I meat grownup 😃
Beautiful Leanne, so glad you played along with us for MM.
