"no red, she said!"

on
Great challenge over at the Jingle Belles:


Super fun Guest Designer Lisa picked the "no red" theme...


Fun challenge since I just bought a bunch of A Muse images.  This is their Winter Scene image which I love clean and simple..just embossed in white.  


These cards make up for the non-USPS friendly cards that I made last week.  They are a sweet 3.25 x 3.25.  The base is PTI kraft.....

I'm seriously patting myself on the back that this is my 7th entry in the Jingle Belle Challenges...7 of 7 weeks...woooo hooooo!

Sweet Amy, you are so very talented! You rock both CAS and trendy cards. I love the dimensions of this...it fits in a regular A2 envelope, so no extra postage; u r so smart :) I like how the white really shows up on your kraft cs. I need to get a better white ink pad.

WAHEY! not only are you 7 for 7...you've made like 4 cards for each week which puts you close to 30 cards up on 2-16! at this rate you'll be done in may and working on valentines for 2012 the rest of the year!!! :)

and then apart from the massive ♥AWESOMENESS♥ of having so many finished cards...they are all *F*A*B*U*L*O*U*S* as well! (i am especially loving THIS ONE--white embossing on kraft??!?! YES, please!!!!!!!!!!) ♥♥♥

A big pat on the back, woot woot, high five for you ... and an extra woot woot for cards mailable with standard postage ... I see a future idea brewing with that concept ... thanks again for joining us on our jingle belles journey.
