Hm, this week's Merry Monday #256 is pretty specific, lol - use pine cones, greens and the word "Believe." OK! Let me go hunt that up! And you know what? While I'm at it, I think I'll pull in this week's Nacho Average Challenge #139 for my layout - I have a feeling my stamp pickings will be slim, so I'll need all the help I can get! And I LOVE how it came out! Yay! It's such a good feeling, making these Christmas cards all year - and often, it helps me get through the hot weather here a little bit better, too, lol.I found some ancient retired DSP to use, and changed out the green this set originally used for Old Olive. The sketch elements turned out to be just perfect for the stamps and papers I chose... Yay! Ornamental Pine & Good Greetings Stamp Sets (both retired); Festival of Prints DSP Pack (retired); Old Olive, Early Espresso, Very Vanilla & Cherry Cobbler CS; Old Olive, Early Espresso & Cherry Cobbler Inks; Snowflake Card Thinlets; Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder; Basic Jewel Rhinestones.

Is there anything more festive than plaid? I don't think so. It make a perfect background for your pine cone and needles. Lovely card. Merry Monday will be so happy.
