Welcome to my weekly Christmas card Challenge called "Merry Monday"! Each week, I post a sketch challenge to inspire you to create a Christmas card for your Christmas card stash! We are all working on getting a Christmas card done each week! A special thank you to my friend Amy T for joining us this month as our Featured Designer!!! It has been wonderful having you with us Amy!!!
For my card, I went with traditional colours and used my favourite poinsettia die from Spellbinders. I embossed the background and kept my card pretty simple.
