A Festive Flurry of Season's Greetings

Today's card is a bit of the unexpected!

A Holiday card, from Me, in June!

That is basically unheard of!

I am going to try to be more prepared, 

this coming Holiday season, than I was last year!

Last year, I was in a mad rush at the last minute!

That kind of takes the fun out of creating my special Holiday cards 

and I didn't get to send out as many as I would have liked.

There is a weekly challenge out in cyber land 

called Merry Monday, a Christmas Card Challenge.

This weeks challenge is a color challenge:

I hope to participate more often, and start my collection of cards now,

so that I may enjoy my Holiday Season more later!

So, what do you think?

Is this a "keeper"?

Should I produce more of it? Or move on to something else?

If you have enjoyed today's card,

and links to each item in my Online Store,

Thanks for visiting me today!

HoHoHo,

Mary

Love & Sympathy for the Pals

I rarely make sympathy cards.

I should.  But I don't.  

Then, when I need one, I panic.

So, I wanted to make one today

and use my Love and Sympathy stamp set.

I have had this set for quite a while and I love the flower image!

For inspiration, I turned to my list of challenge blogs 

and decided to run with the current Pals Paper Arts color challenge:

I am really happy with how my card turned out!

It is a lot softer in person.

It is a really gloomy day here (again) 

so I had to use the flash.

It made the Very Vanilla very bright, 

the Pacific Point card stock very bright, 

and the inks darker.

Someday, I will figure out how 

to get great photos of my cards!

I hope you have enjoyed today's card!

Happy Stamping,

Mary
