Christmas Card Challenge - Day 10

I got my 10th card done.  1/3 of the way through the challenge at Scrappin'-n-Chattin'.   The prompt today was Holly.

I  used this week's sketch at iSpy Sketches to create this card.


I love using banners and have been really wanting to do another card with some banners. 

I used a bunch of scraps that I have in my Christmas container to create this card.  I've also been itching to use the holly background paper and the holly leaves and brad.  


Thanks for looking.  Have a great weekend.

Congrats!!

On my card roll, I created a Congratulations card for my son David.  He just graduated from the Police Academy here and made the Dean's List as well.  We are just so proud of him.

I used this week's sketch again from iSpy Sketches.  I really did love this sketch.


To change it up a bit, I rotated the card.


I am also entering this card into a couple of other challenges:

Moxie Fab World - Stamp It! Cards Congratulations Challenge

Thanks for looking....

Happy Birthday Card

It's been a while since I created any cards.   In addition to scrapbook challenges, Scrappin'-n-Chattin' also has 3 card challenges a month.  This month Abby has a doosie of a challenge.  We are to use all of the same elements on 3 totally different cards - same base, same papers, same embellishments, same sentiment.  I usually don't get around to creating the cards for the challenge.  I spend all of my spare time working on layouts.  But this was so challenging, I found myself thinking about it a lot.  So I gave it a try.

I am going to share my 3rd card right now.  I will create different posts with the others, including all 3 together on the 3rd post.

I looked for inspiration with a sketch.  I really like this week's sketch at iSpy Sketches.  I really liked this sketch and the wonderful design team inspiration.


And I found a challenge that was inspiring too...  This one is from Lawnscaping Challenges.  


I used a sheet of paper from DCWV Celebration Stack and several pieces of scrap cardstock on a white card base.  I used Pop Dots to secure the button and the sentiment strip to lift them off the card a bit.


It felt great to create some cards again.  Stay tuned for the other I created....  Thanks for looking.
