Merry Monday #44-A Christmas Card Colour Challenge

Welcome to a brand new year at the Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge! Each week we offer up a challenge for you to create a Christmas card! Last year I created all sketch challenges but this year I have decided to use a new challenge schedule of Colours, Sketches, Themes and Tic Tac Toe. The first of the month is always a Colour Challenge and this week we have some fun colours for you to try! For our first challenge back, I decided to ink up a new Clearly Besotted Stamp.

{Supplies Used}

Stamps: Clearly Besotted

Ink: Memento Black Tuxedo, Copics

Paper: Snap (Simple Stories), Flourishes White CS, Real Red

Extras: Button from SU!, Ribbon Carousel Ribbon, Nestabilities

As this is the first challenge of the month, I would like to introduce our Featured Designer for January, the talented Clean and Simple gal Deanna Dean! I love Deanna's beautiful and clean lined style! 

Deanna Dean

Hi, my name is Deanna Dean. I was born and raised in a small town in Southern Oregon and still call it home. I have been married to my wonderful husband for 22 years. We have one daughter and soon we will be adding a son-in-law to the family. I've been crafting as long as I can remember. My mom and I were always making something. I starting scrapbooking several years ago and that led to card making and I've never looked back. I'm so excited to be part of the Merry Monday Team this month.

A big welcome to Martha as well, who was our winner the last week in December, she is our Guest Designer this week. The amazing design team have come up with some gorgeous samples to inspire you! We are looking forward to completing many of our Christmas cards this year!
