Shame Robyn Shame


It was my bright idea to start the 2010 Christmas challenge so that I could gradually make my christmas cards through the year and not leave it all until the last minute. I started very enthusiastically ...and asked others to join me....but... I got stuck at 20...and Shirley Anne ....who kindly joined in ...is now up to 36!! So I was finally shamed into getting my act together and so here FINALLY is card # 21. It is for CAS83 which this week had a sketch which was much the same as FTL #1 so I am adding it to my official count. It is also another card for Colour Create #53 which is to use red/gold and cream or white an an optional extra theme of "Christmas". I hope we are allowed to enter 2. Maybe when I get some new goodies (I'm going to Sue's Catty Launch party on Thurs night!!) I will reclaim my Christmas mojo and catch up to Shirley -Anne! Until then I will console myself with the thought that there are others out there in blogland who have not even STARTED their Christmas cards yet!! and not feel SO bad!

There is no shame in that Robyn, I make that pledge evey year! Not going too badly this year but no where near Shirley's 36! That a great effot!

I love your card, it is just lovely!

You're doing a lot better than I am Robyn! This is a great lay out and I like the stripes.
