Monochromatic BD Card

i was surprised to find a couple of card challenge sites shutting down, most notably caardvarks. sorry to see it go, i always looked forward to seeing all the lovely creativeness on that site. i won a couple of challenges and had the honour of being a guest designer a while back. i really wanted to participate in the last challenge, so made this quick card. however, i did find this new challenge site. i got away with doing 2 christmas cards this year. i realized the other day that we have 5 celebrations this month, including birthdays. and i had 3 final exams. and a lovely little girl who keeps me very busy! hope you had a wonderful holiday and a great new year!

Holiday Card

all the paper used on this card is stampin up, which my mom sent me. really beautiful stuff. the flowers came in a kit. i don't think i'll be making anymore christmas cards this year, but i do plan on making a few small gifts.

the little muffin got to try out her jolly jumper (also sent by grandma) today and she absolutely loved it. she hasn't shown much interest in turning over, but she sure loves to sit and stand.

we've had a bit of snow in the last week, but none of it has really stayed. the snowfall definitely got me into the christmas spirit, and it's so nice with a little one around. we've put out a few decorations and hopefully will finish putting them up this weekend.
