Merry Monday #130 {Silent Night}


Happy Thanksgiving to all my Canadian friends and family....I hope you had a wonderful weekend with friends and family and indulged in pies, stuffing and turkey...I know I did ;)

This week, it is our lovely LeAnne is our challenge hostess over at Merry Monday Christmas Challenge. "Silent Night" is her favorite Christmas carol, and her theme this week is to create a card evoking the calm, peaceful feeling of a silent night before Christmas!


For my card, I just wanted a solitude Christmas tree and a very CAS design....I always love to sit in front of my tree on Christmas Eve and just take in it's splendor....and that's what this challenge generated for me....


Come on over to the challenge blog and see what the rest of the Merry Makers have created using LeAnne's challenge - you will love all their creations...I hope you get some time to come and play along with us as well!

  1. I LOVE the simplicity of this, Lori! We always sit in front of the tree on Christmas eve after all the hubbub has died down, turn up the fireplace and just RELAX and enjoy! I can't wait!!! Your tree is a perfect reminder of that!
