Peace on Earth Challenge #98

 


 Hello Friends and welcome back to my blog! 
SO happy you stopped by!

Today I have a card to share for the new challenge over on the PEACE ON EARTH CHRISTMAS CHALLENGE BLOG.  Of course the theme is Anything Christmas and we hope you'll come join in the fun! 

Here's a fun inspiration board we've created to help get you started ...

 

 Last year while making tissue box covers for an upcoming show, I created several background panels using the left over scraps . . .


and I pulled out some of the awesome Penny Black images so I could turn these into fun holiday cards to mail out this year.  Will be easy mailing too which is always a plus when you're mailing out so many cards for the holidays.  Postage just keeps going up and up!!

Challenges to share in:

Allsorts Challenge #834 - Traditional Christmas Colors (ends 10/26)
Inkspirational Challenge #352 - Seasonal - Winter Season/Christmas (ends 10/25)



Penny Black October Saturday Challenge - ATG / Optional Too 'Cute to Spook (ends 10/31)
Simon Says Wednesday Challenge - Get Ready for Christmas (ends 10/22)

PLEASE be sure to pop over to THE BLOG and check out the amazing designs our design team has created for your inspiration.  What a group of talented ladies!!  Then come join in the fun!!

  10. Your festive scene is absolutely charming—those Penny Black images paired with your beautifully layered backgrounds create such a warm, nostalgic feel. The red truck with the tree is classic holiday magic, and I love how the snowy road adds depth and movement. Your clever use of leftover scraps gives the card so much texture and personality, and the traditional colors make it feel timeless. A perfect blend of creativity and heart!
