ReplyDeleteLove those stockings!!! So fun! I agree that paper is so easy to use! So glad I got two packs ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for inviting me to play along this week!!! I've made a second card that I'll post and link later this week :)
Lesley, this is just the cutest thing....my poor stocking punch is just gathering dust this year...haven't used it a bit! You've inspired me!
ReplyDeleteFabulous card Lesley, I love your stockings and the bow is lovely.
ReplyDeleteI love your take on the sketch Lesley, and I'm kicking myself for not buying that adorable punch before it retired! Thanks for doing this year of sketches. You've given me the incentive to finish my Christmas cards early, and I'll be ready to play along again next year! Happy Holidays to all of you!!
ReplyDeleteLesley, I love your stocking card!! It is so adorable. I cannot believe it's the last Merry Monday challenge. I'm sad to see it end, but I do look forward to playing again in January. Thanks for these awesome sketches. i have such a head start on Christmas cards, thanks to you and these fun challenges!!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Christmas!! And I'll see you in January (if not sooner!!)
Hi, Can you please email me your address details - you won our Crafty Creations Challenge a couple of weeks ago!! Congrats!!
ReplyDeleteI love that stocking punch along with the selection of papers you used.
ReplyDeleteWonderful card today, Lesley! And I must say, that the design team knocked it out of the park this week :o)
ReplyDeleteI love these sweet stockings, Lesley! And like LeAnne, I haven't used mine once this year. Annother great sketch, my friend !
ReplyDeleteI'm a bit the same as LeAnne, I very rarely use my punch anymore - but you've inspired me to pull it out with your gorgeous card! Thanks for everything you do with this challenge. You're the reason I now have the biggest stash of cards in time for Xmas-thanks!!!
ReplyDeleteWonderful card, I love all the stockings and great take on the sketch challenge! Hugs, Karen
ReplyDeleteLove your card, Lesley - and ALL the DT cards as well. I've been busy making tags etc so haven't participated in many challenges the last little while. But I couldn't let the final 2012 Merry Monday sketch go by without playing along!
ReplyDeleteCheers, Karen
Although I haven't been able to participate in any challenges for a few weeks, I so appreciate this site. I did an inventory of the Christmas cards I have made and I have 30 ready to go! This is due in a large part to your challenges and inspiration. See you in 2013!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Anne
What a fun challenge this has been all year. Thanks for all the great sketches and inspiration from the design team. See you in January.
ReplyDeletethanks for all the fun sketches and awesome dt inspiration this year :)
ReplyDeleteenjoy your break :)

I love how you used the stockings for the sketch, Lesley! It reminds me of our stockings as a child that were hung every Christmas (there were 5 children in our family)! Love the traditional colors too! Thanks for the great sketch!

ReplyDeleteWow, what a great way to do this sketch, Lesley! I have some of that SU paper, too, from one of the $1.00 Scrap Bags from my SU demo.
ReplyDeleteI've missed seeing your creations...life is much, much too busy right now and I don't get enough 'me' time. :( Have a Merry Christmas!
So fun, love your stockings all lined up in a row Lesley.
ReplyDeleteLesley, this is the nicest card I have seen using the stocking punch, thank you for sharing, you have inspired me to get my stocking punch out :)
