Merry Monday #158 {Use a Stencil}


Happy Merry Monday!!

No, you are not imagining things - I am back! Sorry that it's been a day or two, but tax season consumed me and I was not able to keep up with all things crafty LOL....thank you to all my DT's for being so patient with me and filling in for me while I was away! I sure appreciate it.

This week at Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge, miss Deanne is our wonderful hostess and she's wanting us to dig out those stencils and get creative:


I had to really dig through my drawers of "possibles" but alas, I found my polka dot stencil from Heidi Swapp that I bought ages ago. I dug out the Cherry Cobbler and Garden Green ink pads and some sponge daubers and got to work filling in polka dot holes:


Are you in need of Christmas cards for this year?! Come on over and check us out each Monday - make a card with our current challenge and wa-laaaa! You will have a stash all ready for the hectic, crazy season this year....we'd love to have you. Click HERE to take you to the challenge blog.
