Merry Monday #90

I am so excited, it is the first Monday of 2014 and that of course means a brand new Merry Monday Challenge… but wait, we also have a brand new Merry Monday Challenge Blog site that is just fabulous looking.
 
To go with the brand new blog look Lesley has put together inspiration images to help us all along with getting crafty. This week the inspiration is… to Use Ribbon or Twine on your Christmas Card.

 
I have so much designer paper in my stash and some is so neglected, so I went digging and found this fun paper by Scenic Route. I went with a CAS card and used simple layers and a sticker that came with the paper pack; I backed it with a layer of brown cardstock. Where I had the fun was making the twine twist and turn.
 

Supplies: Cream and brown card stock, Designer Paper - Scenic Route, twine.

The Merry Monday team has been introduced, stop by the Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge blog to see all the fabulous samples they have created. Be sure to visit their blogs and leave a little comment love, and don’t forget it is never to early to start your Christmas cards so join in the fun.

Cheers,
Nina
