Merry Christmas...CR84FN43 47

Mona Pendleton | Saturday, November 19, 2011 @ 9:55 PM | , , ,

Hi there! Winding down with the final preparations for our Thanksgiving Day celebration. Do you have any big plans if you celebrate the holiday? Today begins an all new CR84FN Color Challenge ~ thanks to all who played along with CR84FN42 and thanks to those who left such encouraging sweet comments :) For the next two weeks, we will be playing with the pretty color combo shown below.  The beautiful photos featured in the graphic are Courtesy of: Beccarillo Photography.
I combined a few of my favorite papercrafting products. The pretty patterned paper is from the Melissa Frances Deck the Halls collection and the Vintagey sentiment is from the Waltzingmouse Very Vintage Christmas stamp set. I made a few Poinsettias using the retired Spellbinders die. One of my seasonal faves :)
For sketch inspiration, I played along with the current Stampin' Royalty Challenge:
Thanks so much for visiting!  For COMPLETE details, please visit the CR84FN site and for some fab inspiration, please be sure to visit the CR84FN designers and our current guest designer: Mackie Robertson (Guest Designer),  Suzanne CzosekLisa SomervilleStephanie KraftSue LelliDeborah FringsAndrea Mathews, Heather Jensen
