 Yes! One last challenge with some extra time! Today I get to play at AAA Cards #205, for one last Christmas card of the year! I of course had to go to my best one-two punch combo, lol, Christmas Season with Christmas to Remember! I've been wanting to do a holly card for this sentiment since I first got the sets, so this is finally my chance! I hope I kept it CAS enough, and I have no idea what made me put that big vertical stripe behind everything, but I love how it came out, with just the right touch of dimension. Happy happy New Year everyone! Christmas Season & Christmas to Remember Stamp Sets; Basic White & Cherry Cobbler CS; Old Olive & Cherry Cobbler Inks and Stamp-n-Write Markers; Seasonal Labels Dies; Wonderful Gems; #AAA205.

 Ahh, another extra long challenge that I can sneak into today - Global Design Challenge #323! Woo hoo! For their "celebration" challenge, I couldn't help but bring in a little sneaky peek at an upcoming Sale-A-Bration set - Catching Butterflies! I've not gotten one of the sets that has these cute little kids in it before - it's a fun style! For some reason, this pretty girl with her butterfly net caught me, though, and I decided she would look even cuter over some of our SAB paper in the Sunshine & Rainbows pack. I think polka dots are so happy! Just right for our girl here! I put a birthday sentiment inside for our celebration! Catching Butterflies Stamp Set; Sunshine & Rainbows DSP; Basic White & Magenta Madness CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Pale Papaya, Crumb Cake, Pool Party, Mango Melody & Pumpkin Pie Blends Markers; Tasteful Labels Dies; Sequins; #GDC323.

Another fave weekly of mine is open for some extra time this month! So glad for a chance to play at Freshly Made Sketch #516! I was so sad to see that Sweet Little Stockings is retiring, sigh, I have been loving this set, AND the awesome DSP! I've been pretty focused on the dogs, I admit, but there are some goofy holiday kitties, too! For today's card, I did some fussy cutting of all my favorite kitties in the papers, and since they're all bound to be good for Santa, I threw on this tempting little mousie, too - they better be good for goodness sake!

It's funny, but this time of year when many blogs take a holiday break, it's MY chance to play at some new challenges. Sometimes it's even the best scenario possible, like today at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown's "any challenge from this year" theme! I picked up the November sketch to play with! For today's card, I couldn't resist another crack at our pretty two-step pinecones in Christmas Season, now that I have the knack down, lol. I added a little glitter detail to them this time, too, I love the frosty look of them! Finishing with a few Wonderful Gems gives just a pop of extra color, too!

I'm super excited I just have time to squeeze in at Just Add Ink #585 for Christmas packaging - yay for a two week run! Lol... This was good timing, because I was just throwing together a little gift-card-and-a-cookie for our newspaper girl - she's been doing a good job, stepping into the shoes of the older gent that used to do it, and only a middle schooler! I'm impressed she can get up that early so consistently, lol. Anyway, I set up a little folding table with a note of thanks on it for her, along with this gable box, with an Amazon card and a cookie inside. I hope she'll appreciate it - she works hard! I couldn't resist another penguin tag, I had so much fun with those others - I added a little scrap DSP band to this one!

We're bringing in the colors of the New Year this week at Sunday Stamps #273! After a few false starts, I decided to focus more on the purple side for this one, lol. AND, I just saw a cute write-up by Susan at Stampin' To Die 4 that I had to try! I've seen these circle arrangements before and always wondered how they worked, so I decided to give it a go with my own variations! A good technique can conquer any color challenge, lol. I'm happy with the results, and it was so SWEET to pull out some of my retired Purple Posy goodies! I can't wait to see YOUR projects for this one - meet you at the challenge!

Now THIS is a cool challenge for Christmas Day! Time Out Challenges #203 wants us to be inspired by "inspiration!" So many possibilities! So, I got to thinking about how a scripture quote could be perfect for this challenge, and after I spotted this gorgeous paper in our upcoming Flowering Fields DSP, I knew just which one I wanted, and it's not too shabby for Christmas Day either, lol, and I even got in lots of layers. So much wonderful scripture inspires me, especially "For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given." Glory to the newborn King.

Perfect for Christmas Eve, In{k}spire Me #466 has a lovely color combo for us this week, shades of gray (or maybe silver?) and black! So pretty! When I blow up the challenge pic, that center gray actually looks like Silver Glimmer to me - yay! After a little digging, I came up with this combo for my "elegant Christmas!" I dug through my retired Plaid Tidings paper pack for this pretty soft gray flannel, then cute some Silver Glimmer trees with the retired Pine Woods dies - love these... Some Wintry embossed pine seemed a natural match, along with this gorgeous sentiment from Christmas to Remember. I was all over the place today!

This should be fun - Cardz 4 Guyz #286 has a "contemporary Christmas" challenge for us! I took a minute to think about what I think "contemporary" means - it was a little tough for me! Geometrics, bold colors and silhouettes, photo landscapes, I settled on two for today's card. First off, I knew I wanted my background to be something from my beloved Feels Like Frost paper collection, I picked this one tones of blue, because well, GUYZ, lol. Next up, a pretty holiday silhouette could be found in my Dashing Deer bundle - I love these graceful antlers so much! ll that was left was to heat emboss a sentiment, and finish with three tiny rhinestones. Yay!

Dang, look at these adorable snow-people cupcakes at this week's Cupcake Inspirations #534! Love them! I decided I couldn't resist re-creating this little gang, and I went straight to my Snow Place set from 2015 to do it! I love this set for a the little snowman wardrobe pieces in it, and of course the dies for each and every piece, lol. It was a snap to set up three snowman in the cute colors on the cupcakes. I guess mine are a little less portly, lol! I even added a Real Red layer to pick up those cupcake wrappers!
