Rockin my Christmas Sweater

December is here! Can you believe 2016 is almost over? Since it's the first Monday of the month, it's time for a new challenge at Incy Wincy Designs. The challenge is sponsored by

Sami Stamps

and

Lacy Sunshine

The challenge is "Tic Tac Toe". Here is the board.

I used an image from Sami Stamps and used the diagonal line of "Candy Cane/Use the word Christmas in your Sentiment/Christmas Ornaments". I created 2 side step cards.

Effie Thank You

It's Thursday. Time for the next Dare To Be Sassy Thursday challenge #308 "Give Thanks" at Sassy Studio Designs. At first I was just thinking "Thanksgiving" themed cards.  Then I thought, "Why not just a Thank You card".  So that's what I made.  And being that the last "Hunger Games" movie (Mockingjay part 2) comes out tomorrow, I thought I'd use an Effie Trinket image. I made a side step card this time.

Girls Just Want to Have Fun

Time for the another Sassy Studio Designs sponsored challenge.  This time it's over at Simply Papercrafts.  The challenge is "Anything Goes/Lots of layers".  I decided to make a side step card. Originally, I used the "Cellphone Cindy" SSD image.

But then I realized it is a retired image. (it was brought back in May of 2014 for a Flashback Friday.  If you like it, let Lindsay know and maybe it will be available again)

 So I chose a new (and available image).
