Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!!!!

We had another baby in our church. She is about a month old now. I usually give one of these as a baby gift. I am just finally getting caught up. I hope she enjoys it!

Monochromatic Blossom

So today's Ways to Use it Challenge was to do a Monochromatic card. I think I may of added too much Very Vanilla. I hope it is still considered monochromatic. I tend to grab Earth Element colors so today I challenged myself to grab the Bold Brights. They were the first color family I purchased and now they are the last ones I tend to use. So that was a personal challenge to myself. I also looked for colors that I had eyelets to match. I was trying to use some of the accessories that will be retiring at the end of the year. It was fun trying to find a bright area in the house today. My bulb burnt out at my desk and the sun is not shining today. I use the grid that came in my Tool kit to mark where I want my eyelets. Then it is easy to punch and set with the crop-a-dile.
